I love that idea.. but the problem is, what could we do? It would be hard to get money over the internet, then donate it. But I think it's fantastic.

UKT, what you've got to remember is that most of us here are under 18, the normal credit card age, so there really isn't much we can do.

its not much, but heres wot we could do:

when the forum site is open, a new window could be opened also, suggesting that the visitor gave a minute of silence to the victims...

its not much, but its pretty much all we can do frown.gif

What can we do? Sure I'm over 18, but I ain't got a credit card, I gotta bank card, which I abuse my poor little plastic friend, I abuse his special powers.

 

I dunno about the email, sure it's a great idea, but you gotta remember no one knows the presidents email address, it's probably like bush@thewhitehouse.com biggrin.gif JK it's obviously a very topsecret email address, and how on earth would we get it to some important government american person?

Other forums have done this in the past, where one person collects all the money in a PayPal account for everyone to send to, then the person collecting it sets a deadline, at which time he/she donates the money collected to one of the charities/funds in the name of the club/forum.

 

Not very feasible here, though, since in order to send money via PayPal, you have to have either a credit card or a checking account. Considering the average age of members in this forum, I'd guess that 90% of us won't be able to do this.

 

It's probably easier if you just donate directly to the Red Cross or something, as you can send them money orders, which you can get at most supermarkets and post offices.

Nice guess... Government agencies have a .gov domain. So the URL for the White House is http://www.whitehouse.gov/

 

The president's e-mail? NOT top secret. Well, at least not for his office. It's president@whitehouse.gov

Though I suspect he must have his own personal e-mail, if he checks e-mail at all, that is.

Well... if we all really wanna do something, we could all maybe write a joint email or something and send it to that email address. Or we could all write our own lil sympathy note or something and send it in 1 big email? I dunno, just a few ideas

No. That would make it a chain mail, which is never a good idea. For instance, how would you get the final tally? When would everyone know to stop propagating this message? Even if you wrote a date in the message, there will be many people who would miss it, and keep sending anyway.

 

No, if you want, we could work together on a letter and/or cards to send to, say, the White House, to share our sympathies/thoughts, and when that's done, designate someone to print it out, along with a list of our names and e-mail addresses, as well as the name and URL of this forum, and send it in snail mail.

 

The White House might not be the best place, though, I'm thinking that maybe the firefighters of New York, or New York mayor's office might be better. So, here are some addresses that we might consider:

 

The White House

1600 Pennsylvania Ave. NW

Washington, DC 20500

 

Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani

City Hall

New York, NY 10007

 

International Association of Fire Fighters

1750 New York Ave. NW

Washington, DC 20006

I reckon go with the mayor of NYC- sure it affected everyone, but the people of NYC would have been affected the most. The only thing about it being a letter, is would he actually open it? I mean with all these anthrax scares, many people are refusing to open mail. I'm all for it if we all contribute to the letter and then someone mails it off to whichever address we decide (I would send a letter, but that means I'd have to buy more stamps and I'm cheaptongue.gif)

 

BTW- is it my imagination or does no one really seem to give a stuff about the Pentagon? I mean everyone says 'ohhhh the WTC what a tragedy' blah blah blah, but people were killed at the Pentagon as well. I just think if we're gonna do this, then I think we should write to the Pentagon as well as NY.

Mayor Giuliani probably has better security checks for his mail, and most likely someone else will process them before it reaches him, if at all. The same is assumed for the President.

 

It's probably better to just mention the Pentagon, rather than sending a letter to them, as it's a much "smaller" office in comparison--they probably don't have as much resources in processing mail--as the mayor of New York and the president of the United States are much likely to get more mail than the Pentagon. (So they probably already have more resources set aside for the purposes of processing mail than the Pentagon.)

 

In any case, the address for the Pentagon:

 

OASD(PA)PIA

1400 Defense Pentagon, Room 3A750

Washington, DC 20301-1400
