I didn't want this lost or missed in Max's message about Mudcat and his family. It's often easy for us to read and respond to the good parts and kind of skip the bad. So here's just a reminder thread to focus in on this wonderful 'Catter and the only Mudcat employee as well!

Here's what Max said:

Pene Azul: Pene's father has taken ill, very ill. Pene has been spending about 20 hours a day tending to his father at the hospital. To do this, Pene has quit most of his jobs, and is in quite a bind with all of his and his father's bills, not to mention the medical expenses involved. So please send your best wishes to Pene, and consider making a contribution to [e-mail] using http://paypal.com. I am putting several items from the mudcat physical archive into the auction to raise funds for Pene in this very difficult time. The items are awesome, so dig deep, take something awesome home and help our only employee of this great resource.

And that pretty well sums it up. I owe so much to so many here that this is just one small chance for me to payback. Some of you might want to pay it forward. Believe me when it comes to this place, what goes around comes around and what you put in will come back to you in spades.

We all owe a lot to Jeff for all the work that he does and the knowledge he has contributed to this place......and just for being the friend that he is! He's truly one of the good guys. Do whatever you can.
