My uncle, one of the founders of Real World Software (Microsoft
Dynamics) just wound up "donating" his ranch in South Africa to the
constant hell. He dedicated years of his life to trying to help build
the post apartheid society there, and lost all he had doing so.

He now lives in Colorado on land my other uncle, the lawyer who never
left the US, lent him the cash to buy.

The best thing that can happen to Africa is that the whole world leave
it completely alone (to include stopping trying to get its natural
resources), so that the Africans can come to their collective senses and
build civil societies, or not. 

Africa is a hell hole. Sending them more money only makes it more of a
hell hole, as it is stolen by the scum who make it hell to finance their
armies of thugs.

Today, I prefer to think about other, real things.

I've made this annual duty:

I urge anyone with a smidgen of a philanthropist heart to consider
matching
my US$120 donation to Feed the Children in Africa, where there is no
Christmas, just constant Hell.

Now, back to your regular programming.

Happy Holidays,
