Hi everyone,

As you may know, I've been on the Husker List for many years.  This  
post is way off topic, but things seem to be slow on the list right  
now, so maybe it won't hurt anything.

I know there are a lot of worthy causes for charitable giving, but I'm  
reaching out to every avenue I can think of on this one.  My niece and  
her husband had quadruplets...YES FOUR, count 'em FOUR babies back in  
January.  They're doing well, and the fourth recently came home, so  
now it is quite a house full.  Friends and family have been pitching  
in, but these kids eat on a strict schedule of every 4 hours...keeping  
at least 2 and more like 3 or 4 people in the house with my niece to  
help out has been quite challenging.

Anyway, I threw together a website with a secure PayPal donation link.  
If you feel so inclined, please visit the site and learn about their  
new journey.  And please consider a donation.  Any amount will be  
greatly appreciated.

They are a typical family in a smallish split-level ranch house doing  
the best they can...but diapers and formula alone are enough to cause  
a lot of financial stress.  These children are their first...they took  
no extraordinary fertility measures.  They were just trying to have  
their first baby, and wha la...they get four!

If you can, please forward the website link to your email contact  
list...I'd love to get a chain email of sorts traveling around the  
country!

Sorry for the waaay off topic post.  Back to your regularly scheduled  
Husker Programming...
