I've signed up and donated.  Also invited to take a Midwest swing this
Spring, Summer or Fall to catch some action at the various VW campouts and
shows.  (Buses by the Beach, May 27-30th!)   Even if they don't make the
Midwest, I hope they capture they special vibes associated with many of
these events.
