It's always nice that people meet and find their "soul mate" in real life or in a virtual surrounding like Second Life. As far as your initiative to adopt a child, I'm only very happy to hear that. The link between virtual life and real life charity should be promoted wherever it can. And - as you know, looking at the message you sent me - I try to raise as much money for charity as I can. Not trying to get rich myself: at least 90% of all gifts go to charity and we try to spend as little as possible on costs. So be generous and give to Socrates Repine, our financial controller. And when you think about opening a bank account at JT Financial, please contact him too: we get 0-01% interest of your bank account, not lowering your own interest (it stays 0.15%!). Just by using our ATM when you open your bank account, you take care some money goes to charity. And to Pollyanneke Pera and scubasteve Canning I'd like to say: keep doing the right thing by sponsoring World Vision for only $ 43 a month. And remember: we also have ways of sponsoring children in the 3rd world for less than $ 10 a month. They have food, can go to school and get a decent life in that way. Save the children, they are our future! Well, first of all: congratulations! It’s always nice that people meet and find their “soul mate” in real life or in a virtual surrounding like Second Life.
