Heartfelt message, Doug. Thanks for doing it. The human spirit cannot be conquered.

Doug--

I can only echo what others have said. I knew it would be difficult to watch this, so I have been avoiding it, and even today it was hard. Certainly, the scale of the catastrophe is overwhelming in every way, but what hits me the most is the professionalism and sacrifice of people whose job it is to go in the opposite direction from all good sense and self-preservation, directly into the storm while all others are fleeing, like the FDNY squads during 9/11. I am referring most specifically to the workers who even as we speak continue their efforts at the nuclear plant. There is little protection against the levels of radiation they face, and they know it, and yet they also know that they are the thin line between their fellow man and even greater catastrophe. It is to people like that that the rest of us owe everything, a debt that is forever owed and can only be paid forward by those with similar courage.

Hopefully this isn't thread jacking.. Im no forum expert.

If you guys are interested in helping out. Check out www.facebook.com/tylerwolfsonracing I have put together something where I donate $1 for every new "like" of the fan page to the Japanese Red Cross. I am working on finding a way to offer branding to try and get a company to match the donations or raise the bar assuming I can get there..
