[OM] A Calling to fellow Olympus enthusiasts

Fellow Olympus enthusiasts, when I received Chuck's e-mail yesterday, I
had much mixed emotions like (1) gee, this is an opportunity for me to
get some real bargains; (2) may be he has some items that I can use, and
I can help him in some/this way, (2) the little boy inside me said *he
is hurting inside because in addition to the family's medical
difficulty, he has to part with his favorite toys (the little boy inside
him that is)* ......

I have been reading Chuck's e-mails on this Net for quite some time now;
and he has been helpful in many ways.  As such, a thought came to my
mind and I like to bounce with all of you.  IF...if everyone of us would
chip in $5, $10, $20 each, the collected amount could/would total up to
that he is asking for - about $2800; then, he would NOT need to part
with his treasured collection. Yes, dealing with family's medical
problem is already painful enough.....

If you like this idea, I would be willing to be the collection point so
that he can receive a sizeable amount when collected, and not in
piecemeal fashion.  If interested, you can send a check (payable to
Chuck Skinner, and no cash please) to my address of whatever amount you
feel inclined; please feel free to include any personal note of
comfort/support as you wish. I'll gather up the mails and send them to
Chuck in one big bundle.  

My mailing address: 2686 Yerba Cliff Ct., San Jose, CA 95121; and please
put a small annotation at the lower left corner of your envelope like
*for Chuck*.  I welcome your comment/suggestion.
