Would this have been a Sundance game? Ed once told me that he knew of
one "in Georgia". But I told him to send it to me COD, since I knew
about his rep. Always wondered if that Sundance really existed and if
anyone really got it.

Does anyone else think that the eye of public scrutiny, say a major TV
network, should get wind of this charity "to check it out"? Even if
Ed's just a peon in the organization, he's probably stealing and they
can make a story out of that. Anyone here in the vectorlist offer to
provide an interview to substantiate any questionable dealings that this
major TV network might find?
