Earlier this week I received a message about DVR's poor health and poor finances. Terrible on both accounts.

Before I give details or coordinates (and contribute) I would appreciate if anyone knows about Dave's current circumstances.

I wish him well.

I went there and read enough.

Any progress reports?

For the fund raising, you write directly to Dave at Folklore Productions. The adress is in the other thread, and I'll post updates there to.

When the thread linked above first appeared, I e-mailed back home to Caffe Lena in Saratoga Springs, NY. Dave and Lena's are very old friends. Sarah Craig, the Caffe's Manager is working on setting something up. I've been preoccupied with other stuff and don't know how that is coming along. Try www.caffelena.com (note the two f's in "caffe".

If someboday wants to check this out to see if it is worth a blue clicky, be my guest. I'm short of time, for reasons I'll post eventually. -George ::-.--O

That will be one helluva show. Might still try to make it, but probably can't.

I sure hope they make a video.

Get well, big guy.
