Why Does this Not Surprise Me?
One of the subject areas I feel was majorly lacking in my own formal education is economics. My high school offered an elective course in economics my senior year but I did not have room for it in my schedule. My college alma mater had a well-respect...

I am writing on behalf of the United Network for Organ Sharing. We are writing an article for our bi-monthly magazine, the Update, about BlogCatalog's social awareness campaign to promote organ donation. We are including a side bar with quotes that people posted about the campaign and I was wondering if we could use a portion of what you wrote. The portion we want to use reads:
"There is so much misinformation out there about organ donation that keeps people from signing up to become a donor. This sounds like a great opportunity to help clear up some of the confusion!"
If you agree to let us use this, please email me your first name and the city and state that you live in. My email address is claggeak@unos.org. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or if you need additional information.
Thanks,
Mandy
I enjoy this blog and I imagine any Catholic-Homeschooler will feel the same.
