list members....
first of all i wanted to thank all the people that responded to me based
on my comments on this post to ecolog-l a few days ago. some interesting
comments. most were also copied to back to the list. so, i did not
summarize here.
one person that did not send her post to the list....won't share it
hear, far too nasty, completely misinterpreted my intentions.
i did not name names and i should have also said i was not including
actress alison sudol either. by the way, i did not know this, but thanks
to professor jerry howard of the u. of new orleans i learned this:
"However, we need to cultivate those whose interest is genuine and
Alison Sudol is one. She is a goodwill ambassador for IUCN.". so, i
wanted to thank him for that update. kudos to her.
as it seems or so i read that money/income seems to be getting more and
more concentrated at the upper end of society world-wide, i am just
hoping that these fewer and fewer people that have more than they or
anyone would ever need to live on, would donate more of their money to
the many causes around the world that could use more of their wealth.
i was not suggesting that anyone needing or wanting money for their
cause should turn away a penny. that wouldn't make too much sense.
no, we may never know what someone's real motive is in giving away their
money or time. in the end, i guess it doesn't really matter.
also, didn't mention any names, so i wasn't slamming any one individual
and i really had nobody in mind.
i have written letters and e-mails to celebrities asking them for their
money or time. have been much more successful on getting some time than
money.
with that said, was not trying to upset anyone on this fine list. also
wanted to add this....have seen some very fine listservs come and go
over the past 20 years. some of them were so good and so helpful, am not
really sure whey they disappeared, as they were still very active when
they did disappear. ecolog-l, a testament to esa and ecolog-l moderator
david inouye, ph.d., it just seems to keep moving along....
thanks and have a great thursday.
