Oh well - looks like anyone that has the remotest connection with Johan has been frightened off -
Must be that bit about his "Charity" not being registered with the California District Attorney as required by California State Law

So, Johan, Mikael, and Celtic Predator ( wonder what that is in Swedish ? ) -
Here's wishing that you at least have a Happy, if not too prosperous New Year

.... and to anyone that has kept up with all this -
Please don't be put off donating to GENUINE childrens charities -
There are plenty of them - and they are often desperately in need of support -
Especially at this time of year.

My own charity of choice is a Childrens Hospice that provide respite care
for children with "life limiting" illnesses - ( not expected to survive to adulthood ).
They have 3 Hospices in my region and I know from speaking to their fundraising manager last week
that they are struggling financially.

Like everyone else they suffered with donations being diverted to the Tsunami appeal, which is understandable,
but any SCAM preying on folks generosity can also have an effect on genuine charities.

I won't be getting involved in any dubious ventures to further my own career,
on the pretense of raising funds for them, -
I'll just carry on doing my bit to help them, and I urge everyone to do the same.

Happy New Year,


Coconutty

Edited to amend list of those that don't want to be associated with Johan in a negative way.
