I am reporting this as spam. A similar begging letter is running in a
parallel thread.

wow I am just amazed at the rancor and hate this has caused.

What?
let me tell you a short story... in 99 or 2000 I spent a month in Scotland
with 2 other americans (Business) one weekend we traveled to Glasgow for
some clubbing (bar hopping). there were people on the streets with cans for
donations for kids charities and each time I was approached I dropped a
couple of bucks worth into the can while the others with me, Scots included,
were saying "already gave". after several tins had been added to by me one
of the group asked "why do you give each time" my answer was only this...."
it's for the kids"
I have absolutely no guilt in this "spamming" if that's what you want to
think it is because ....It's for a kid ... so blow it out your ass

You appear to confuse practical help with sentimentality.
I do volunteer work for a local community charity and give 10-15 hours
a week of my time, but they don't get any money off me, not even the
poor little kids.
I'm a heartless ******* aren't I?
