in reply to Redux: News and Needs in New Orleans

Hi jerrygarciuh,

In addition to what the other monks have said, have you tried looking/asking on freecycle?

Hope this helps.

    Freecycle is a great concept. I recently signed up for 2 local groups, and I get the digest emails. I've stopped reading the mails though, because 80% of the offers are from 2 annoying people who must be rummaging through their neighbors' trash and posting separate messages about every small thing that they find. And when something isn't taken, they re-offer it 5 times. I haven't unsubscribed yet though, because I'm planning on someday getting around to writing a script that filters out messages from those 2 users.

    I have an O'Reilly Javascript book (3rd edition) and an O'Reilly DHTML book, msg me if you're interested. Frankly, I've never really used them. I've found that the info is always easier to get from google than by actually getting up and finding the books.
