>The Save Henry's Ass Movement (SHAM) is _not_ a defense fund.
>It is _not_ a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization, and therefore

>even an organization.  It's just a name I made up.  It seemed

>You may, if you wish such to be known, provide your name,
>address and phone number.  However, as you may know, it
>is probably safer to send it anonymously.  Nevertheless,
>you will all have my gratitude.  I may think of something
>to send to hundred dollar donators or something, maybe a
>tear-stained certificate of slack or something, but I
>can't quite work up to the cheesiness of that quite yet.

>Give me time.

>Money sent to this fund will be used to meet the immediate
>needs of paying rent and keeping the electricity on and food
>in my refrigerator.  It may even buy me a pack of cigarettes.
>I might even use it to buy peanut butter, if I'm required to
>dodge the draft any time soon.

>If I am indicted based on this crippled dog of a case it
>will at that point become a defense fund, and perhaps even
>a 501(c)(3) organization.  If I am not, and this emergency
>passes, any excess funds, should such exist, will be recycled
>preferably to a 501(c)(3) organization which I believe would

>Such an organization would serve as an umbrella fund for
>the defense of any other persons harassed by the criminal

>harassment.  However, the position I'm in makes me rather
>less than a credible founder of this organization.  It
>needs to be founded by someone who is not in legal hot

>Should such a 501(c)(3) organization not exist, I'll split
