If I give anybody support, I support them. Not sure what the range of a DC3 is, ... Oxfam do maintain warehouses here in the UK with supplies ready for shipment to anywhere in the world, suitable for almost any disaster. Recent events that they were on top of with supplies were the Boxing day tsunami, the Pakistan earthquake, and other similar major disasters. At the time of both these disasters Oxfam supplies were on route to the disaster area within very short times, although I believe it was on commercial air transport (but they may have had a subsidised rate). They are certainly one of the more creditable charities when it comes to disaster aid. -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist Gus S Calabrese Denver, CO 720 222 1309 303 908 7716 cell Please include and do not limit yourself to "spam2006".
