Help for the hungry....

[Rick McGreal]

Hi Guys..

This is a bit of a plea to you all...

There is a site on the net...
http://www.thehungersite.com

If you hit the site (Your only allowed one hit per day) The corperate
sponsers will donate money to worthy causes around the world helping the
hungry.

Thsi is NOT a spam trap. This is a genuine charity for a very good cause...

All I'm asking is that you hit the site when you go and get your mail.

This IMO is a damn good idea.....Please pass this on to other people but
don't allow this to go out as spam mail......It just makes people look bad
in the end..

Thank you for your time....
Don't forget...Your helping people..

I click on it every day. But IMHO this is not exactly the way forward. Yes
it can relieve hunger, but handouts should only be for the short term. In
the long term, these people should be donating seeds, tools, building wells,
irrigation projects etc.

Maybe if you read the site Rick, it does say on it that spamming does not
aid their cause. They know that people have their interests at heart, but
they would prefer it if spamming didn't happen. I'm going to have to report
you to your ISP )))

And I hope you realised that was a joke....

Thank you for your time....

In the short term yes,
In the long term, no

What these people need is education and to get rid of neverending civil war
and mad dictators.
To send money/food doesn't help. These problems do not raise because of
climate or fate. In neverending wars beside mined fields and fleeing
peasants there cannot be food.
If you really want to help a child there you have to adopt it. Unfortunately
the parents will make two new ones for each.
I don't know how to solve this misery.

Peter,

Actually, the solution is VERY easy - you stop human nature, which is
the cause of wars, fights, murders, thievery, coveting, hate,
overpopulation, selfishness, and every other kind of misery and problem
that has faced man since his/her existance on this planet.

BUT, to stop human nature - that is the question that philosophers and
others through the ages have tried to come up with an answer and have
fallen flat on their collective faces and butts.

IF you find an answer to that issue, you will rule the planet, I can
guarentee you.

also, by supporting the countrys, the mad dictators know they need not care,
as the west will hand out from now till eternity

hitler thought that when he tried to wipe out the jews, look where he went,
he claimed the cause of all them things were hte jews, so by wiping them out
he'd stop all wars, he started a war in the process

Just as you, I think the lack of education is the biggest problem for Third
World countries. When people are educated, they are not only able to set up
a steady economy, but also self esteem, selfconsciousness. These two things
are, in my opinioin, essential to build up a democracy without much
corruption, violence/civil/tribal wars, which are together with overcrowding
the greatest problems in poor countries. A good democracy and educated
citizens may therefore lead to an end to the unfair distribution of wealth
in those countries and the world at whole.

Though sending food is not a contribution to structural improvements in the
third world, it is necessary to help those without a chance survive. Foods
prevents people from dying, and being alive is more important than being
wealthy, even for them with their apparently miserable life without any
realistic chance of betterment. Keeping them alive is more important than
structural improvements, though it seems more interesting to put money in
helping third worldcountries to become self-sufficient in gaining food. But
that only benefits future generations, leaving the present-day poor starving
to death. So please, first send food and money, before even thinking about
structural solutions.

Genetic engineering, mind control, police state.
Play Alpha Centauri...

I bought that game and played it for awhile, however, I found it to be too
much like Civ2 and not much that is new. So the box/cd sits in my closest
quietly waiting for me to get a "play those games you forgot about" surge
