I get the same as joe. I'm sure it's because of being dial up users.
As for Fred at this time he knows nothing of me seeing those machines. Guess half are not complete. I'm sure many will go around and around and up n down, none would be in working condition.
He may want $1 a piece or he may want $120 a piece. or be upset that I have even ask. I has taken me 5 years just to see whats there.

The biggest problem I see is that there are no donation centers west of Minnesota or Louisiana. The machines being talked about are in Oregon. Much too big of a road trip. And like 10X said, the owner may not even be willing to part with them.

I would suspect that most of us would be hard-put to pay shipping on something like that. I know I would -- my budget is pretty tight, and I'm not feeling sorry for myself -- just stating a fact. I think the concept is wonderful.

This is a one woman thing started in Madison, WI. I was surprised that it had gone as far as it did already. Is there nothing like it on the west coast? If not, somebody should - could start one. It takes a saint.
