Jonathan, thats complete and utter nonsense. Some of you folks seem to be grasping at any straw, no matter how implausible, to keep from making ANY change at all, even one to ensure OO gets more donations. To address your point, all you have to do is explain that the donation will be converted to euros and show that your donation of, for example, 100 pesos, will be charged as 25 Euros to the account. Inventing fantasies to make it "impossible" to accomodate donors is both churlish and counter-productive. -- Bob Smits [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
