    Hey guys,

    I just want to spread the word about the rally and donation drive that will be happening this Saturday for the earthquake victims of Pakistan. I'm trying to get as much publicity for it as possible, so please feel free to email this to as many as possible. Instead of asking for clothes and food though, the drive is asking for medical supplies, wheelchairs, prosthetics or money contributions. If you can help, it will be very appreciated. Thanks.
