Re: [ga] Call for DNSO fundraising efforts

[Jeff Williams <jwkckid1@ix.netcom.com>]

Andrew and all assembly members,

  As when this was originally announced, there is not transit number by
which folks can electronically transfer funds from various accounts
into this account to which you reference.  I would be happy to contribute,
but unless or until a transit number is also provided, I decline to do so.
These types of accounts are highly suspect by the FRB and FED, and
represent a poor method/depository of and for collecting funds.
