Hi Brothers!

Any crazy brothers driving from the Boston area to Minneapolis
who want to take some computers to Wisconsin?

This came via another list from someone I barely know, but who
I would put you in touch with.

If you are interested, please contact me at:
sharon_zohar@compuserve.com.

Thanks.

Sharon

Hi,

A friend ... works with the US Committee for
Scientific Cooperation with Vietnam, an organization that is desperately
trying to get the Montagnards (indigenous mountain people) of Vietnam bac=
k
on their feet.  They are very discriminated against by the ethnic
Vietnamese majority, and have been since before the Vietnam War.

My company is willing to donate a large number of computers to this
organization, but they are not willing to donate the cost of shipping the=
m
to Madison WI, where the University of Wisconsin has agreed to store them=

until enough money can be raised to ship the computers to Vietnam.  (The
head of the organization, "Dr. Judy," is a professor at U. Wisconsin.)

If any of you are headed in the general direction of Madison WI, and
wouldn't mind putting some computers in your car and dropping them off, i=
t
would be greatly appreciated.
