Hi Floyd

I know and I'm sure most of the people on this list didn't interpret your
e-mail as soliciting for anything. But obviously your in a tough spot at
the moment and people on this list would just like to help you get the
supplies you need so you can help yourself a little bit better.

I know there are some people like me who are on this list are tormented by
the fact that we just live too far away to go help in person (I'm in
California). The only thing we can do is offer to send supplies, send money
or both. So if you need anything please let us know and we'll do our best
to get it to you. And later when your bank is back in service, you can pay
us back if you like or better yet give it to someone else who is in need.

So, if you need us to bring anything to you, please let us know.

Darrell
