    Found some on travelocity for < $900.

    Maybe he can get to London....anyway, despite the rectal issues, there's nothing we can't do.

    PM Gear goes $20 - only because we're broke until we sell some skis, otherwise, we'd go large.
    Punani - how many $400 flight from Zurich quotes will it take you to realize this can be done? That flight, if available from the other end, could be booked into SFO, Tyrone could maybe pick him up at the airport and meet me on Donner Pass for the handoff and the drive to JH.

    Food for thought.


    edit: YO, frozen - couldn't get paypal to put it through to the addy you posted......

    If we count the numbers offered, we're up to $350. Plus a bit more that hasn't been specified.

    This is almost enough to float a ticket from London. C'mon folks, step up.

    Are there any other nominees?

    the beauty of the new maggot chat room - didn't know about this until just now, thanks to the chat. I'll donate to the cause, although still not sure if I'll make it to the JH summit.

    What happens to the money if no one gets sponsored? I'd like to hear that it will go to buy everyone a big bash with free booze and stuff.

    Will paypal later in the week, further away from the 1st as possible...

    Being as how we only have one nominee I thought I'd throw another name out there. How about EPskis? The guy has had a pretty rough year, I'm sure a trip to Jackson would help brighten up his life.

    I'd support the EPSkis nominee as well.
    So, let's continue to pony up.

    In about 2 weeks, we'll need to assess how much money we've got and what the options are.

    If possible, we could spancer 2 folks.
    If not, we'll have to vote.

    But let's jump off that bridge when we get to it.

    Wow - not quite sure how to respond to the nomination other than to say "Thanks!"

    I'd just like to say something.....If the point of the spancership is to give somebody the chance to get out there who otherwise couldn't *afford* it - then although the bank account is thinner than my hairline - I'd rather see it go to someone who REALLY couldn't *afford* it.

    Kinda torn on the issue - just felt like I had to say something...

    edit: fwiw - I'll shoot the $20 on Friday nite.

    Buster, I've copied this over to the main board. It should get more exposure over there no?

    I'm in for $25. I still don't know if I'll make the summit, but I'm all for sending a deserving [but broke] soul.

    Great idea BH: I think we can find mags who really are down on their luck and deserving...

    And any extra cash should get distributed to the summit charity (whatever it is)

    Alright, Just a quick funds update. We are up to $541.25. (the odd amount is a Credit Card Charge Paypal hits me)

    So - We are certainly getting there! Keep them coming, it is a great cause.
