We are still very much in need of donations to pay for Kodo's media fund and
legal fees.  We would like to set up a fundraising auction for this coming
week only.  If you would like to bid on an item, please e-mail to the
address given with the item.  Your bid will go to the person who donated the
item, and also to me; note that each item has its own address.  The auction
will go until Thursday June 19 at 5:00 p.m.  and winners will be notified a
few days after that.
 
If you would like to donate something, please e-mail me at [log in to unmask]
**Important note: To make things easier for everyone, donors will be
responsible for shipping the item.** All proceeds will go either to Kodo's
media fund or legal fees.  Thank you very much!
