- By the by, folks, I would like you all to support Jacques to the best
- of your (financial) ability. I notice that he omitted to mention where
- to send those donations so, out of the goodness of my heart, I am
- volunteering to serve as a collection agent for him. Send your
- donations to the address below, and mark them
