SJ has lost pretty much all he had in hurricane Ike this weekend. He now lives in his car around Houston. He is not a young man and as you know several heart attacks and a stroke later is not expected to be able to get a day job. I would like to ask you all to either send donations or give me items to put up for auction for him.
For those of you who wish to help him with sending him money CLICK HERE (http://www.dssftp.com/xcart/product.php?productid=157) and buy as many times $10 donation as you can help.
Those of you who wish to put items up for auctions please EMAIL ME HERE (mili@dssftp.com) with what you have to offer (no garbage please) and I will put it up for auction. When the item is sold I will ask you to send it to the end user direct.
Any cash collected I will Western Union to SJ.
I wish to start the ball by offering a Dishnet 6000 HDTV receiver with the HDTV module and a USBISO for auction. You will find it in the auction site at http://dssftp.com/forum/vbay.php?do=cat&showcat=1
Please bid generously.

Fellow testers,

I have never asked for anything before as long as I have been here but Jack is my best friend and he truly needs help at this time. He really needs everyone's help at this time if he is to survive this terrible ordeal that he is facing. His health problems are causing him a great deal of problems. His car is in bad shape and he is broke. I begged Jack to evacuate the area to make sure he would stay alive. He listened to me and left. If he would have stayed, he would surly be dead. Do me a favor and please help Jack with a donation.

Thanks guys/gals,

good post seaboard....

SJ has posted many files, fixes and keys for all of us to use, so if you cant find it in your heart to donate, then pay him for the work he has done for you.

FEMA took their sweet friggin' time! :-(


Forget the $700 Billion Bail Out, Support those in need right now!
What happened to all those house trailers for New Orleans that never appeared and were bought and paid for?????

This is all Bull Shit, suggest everyone call their local and federal politicians and the whitehouse!

Spending billions a month in Iraq and not getting a payback via free oil, C'mon!
B. Hussein Obama isn't the answer........John M. is (hey only four years)!

Cool beans mili.

Damn shame the bidder on that 811 went deadbeat on us. I've been online when he is trying to make contact. If my wife's medical costs hadn't unexpectedly doubled this last week, I'd send in what he bid. Seriously.

God bless you and all who donated.
