Dear AnnMarie, You are someone whom I admire. You have the courage of your convictions, and you have the technical ability to communicate beautifully. I wish you and your loved ones the most beautiful holidays and truly fulfilling new year.
Peace and true joy.

Hey! I was just thinking about getting this phone.
Not that some stupid phone company needs my help advertising their stuff - but it looks like when you get the phone some of the money from your bill goes to fight AIDS and whatnot.

Just thought you might be interested, in light of your post here.

Keep up the good work, btw.
