Raul's got a point. noone knows when mark will be able to access his paypal account. if anyone wants to donate funds, it can be done through my paypal account (paulages@hotmail.com). it's empty now, and i don't forsee using it anytime immediately soon, so it'll be easy to keep track of. there are a lot of expenses that could come well before a bike- hell, we don't even know if he'll be able to walk, let alone ride. he did get completely screwed over by his landlord while he was in the hospital.... his mother managed to salvage some of his stuff, but the landlord tried to throw everything out when he didn't make rent at the first of the month. i'm sure he'd love flowers when he's awake, but i'm sure a five here and there wouldn't hurt either.
