Hey, good to hear Sed :-) <BR> <BR>Yeah, school of hard knocks here as well buddy. I regulary help the local youth organisations and am activly involved in Youth Suicide Prevention Programs. Also, whenever we hold PP Gallery exhibitions, we always auction a print and donate the proceeds to the local Charity. <BR> <BR>But like you say, it&acute;s these particular situations where you can make the most impact... just by being there. 8)

The park outside Horton Plaza can be the most surreal place in the world on a bright and sunny day. :)

And gave you an extra one. <BR> <BR><b>/me</b> know nothing about the homeless, bu to me it always seems like something must have gone way wrong if you fall through all the social security grids and end up on the streets. Rather hard to get back from there to, since you won&acute;t get any welfare (I believe that&acute;s the term in English) over here if you have no post address. <BR> <BR>Anyway, my only &quot;social&quot; deed is donating money when they come by to collect.

Sed....... nothing wrong with my laptop cause I don&acute;t have one......... I was asking since some of your are involved in organizations and thought maybe some one might know of a place/or name....... I have been searching for the past couple of years and it seems where I&acute;m from is lacking that kind of program. It&acute;s a touchie subject for me to answer your question, I was just asking........

lol.. chichi, they all carry guns and have licence to kill .. not many people have the guts or balls to set up public organisations to fight them.. especially down here in Oz. We aren&acute;t aloud to own guns here, now that puts us at a slight disadvantage!!! <BR> <BR>But seriously, most of the &acute;corrupt cops&acute; operations are handled internally by police dept&acute;s or FBI and great deal of secrecy is invloved in the operations. I doubt they would have a &acute;dob in a corrupt cop&acute; hotline. <BR>;-) <BR>

Getting back to the subject...I have seen just what you have discribed many time over the years, sed. I worked in downtown Chicago (The Loop) and there are still plenty of them. I always made sure that I had a buck of two and all kinds of change. Even took some of them to lunch with me in the winter just to make sure they got a hot meal.. I found that each has his own story of why they are living on the streets. Like you said, some have quite a bit of talent and the bottle is taking its toll... I still get to the Loop every now and then and I still carry that small change....
