OT but worth it... gear raffle for a good cause...

there is an organization holding a raffle of some pretty decent video gear. buy in is reasonable, gear is good and it seems to be a worthy cause. they are trying to buy a van for their education/community center

they are posting at the sponsor level over at dvxuser. just thought id pass the info on to the lafcp gang. sure, the more tickets purchased the lower my chances are to win - but i figure the good karma will offset the odds ; )
