A Viewer Poll

Up to now I have resisted using other social media sites for this site. I have been told on several occasions that Facebook and twitter would greatly enhance my ability to help those in need. I have never used either. So I would like to hear from my viewers. Would either of these make a difference in your life or those you know?

Please take the time and let me know. Thank you all for viewing.

A Quick Update

I wanted to let everyone know things have gone slower than I anticipated but hopefully some of the new additions will be available for viewing tomorrow. In the mean time here is a site I support.

Born HIV Free is a group dedicated to creating a generation born free of the disease. I think we can all support a noble cause as this.
