Americans (I was born in England, raised in Venezuela, and have lived in Miami for 20 years) are extremely generous and, yes, more than willing to help others. Unfortunately, the same people who crave the Yankee dollar (Maligiaq's situation is not a part of this statement) are very quick to criticize Americans. As you will recall, my first instinct was to contribute. Someone more level-headed said, "Wait a minute, let's check this out first." It was duly checked and verified and I will be sending my contribution today. I will put "Paddlewise" on the check. Hopefully, Maligiaq's Dad will let us know the results of Paddlewise contributors.
