I'm writing to ask you to to vote for Allen in the Entertainment category. All you have to do is register at this website: http://www.spinalcord.org/ , if you are not already registered. I found that after registering it's best to log off and then click on the link again. The top of the page will show "top stories". The first story provides the link to vote for the nominees. Allen is under #7, Entertainment. I would really appreciate it if everyone in the group votes for Allen. He has done a lot to help with SCI and Transverse Myelitis. I feel he really deserves this award. Thanks, Cindy McLeroy
