When I posted links to the articles on Tikva,I felt it would be
inappropriate to do any requests for donations over "Johnny Lutz
Message Board" or Sonya Spins Message Board",etc,and would also incur
the readers skepticism,i mean,how do they know this place is on the up-
and-up?But I know they are,as I e-mailed Oksana's own company,at
staff@... ,and they had Tikva e-mail me back.If anyone
wants to make a donation doing that route,go ahead.If you want to go to
Tikva directly,go to www.tikvaodessa.org .
Also,feel free to spread the message around and post links to the BOI
article and TikvaOdessa,at the "General Skating Chat",or "Other
Skaters",on whatever boards you can find(first checking to see if
someone or me beat you to it).But please do not make any requests for
donations,as I feel that would be bad 'netiquette',as well as
annoying.Let's try this for a feww weeks,and then alert OksanaStyle to
the word-of-mouth that's being done in her name for such a good cause.
