hmmmm, as i got no responses either quilters have run out of good ideas or they didnt bother going to the website to see what it was all about or they all thot there she goes again, that loon from the southern hemisphere that hasnt a clue what is really going on in the world...living in a small country far from the maddening crowd like she does. admittedly we do only have one large city and three smaller ones down this way. the rest of the folks live in smaller towns, villages, boroughs or on farms. hey, we all still used horses and carts to get around on dirt roads for the most part. :)) amazing tho it seems, we do have electricity and the internet or i'm speaking from the great beyond....wherever that might be. now we wait til the end of January (i forget the exact date) til the ideas have been sorted thru and the best ones chosen for internet voting by the general population. then google comes up with the money and those ideas get implemented. this to me seems like a brilliant thing to do. i cant wait to see what those great ideas are. shrug, j.

sorry if this offends/annoys anyone but to me it just makes good sense. i just found this today. google has promised 10 million dollars to implement the best ideas to help the most people. sounds silly to some of you, no doubt, but think about it. the internet has provided the largest number of people on the planet with the largest amount of information in the history of mankind. lots of people have ideas, some of those are great ideas. most of those ideas only ever get told around a gathering of family and friends. to implement ideas always cost money. most of us will never have enough money to do anything about it. google is offering the money to implement those great ideas. what have you got to lose. go have a look at this site and see. spreading the word cuz i reckon quilters all have great ideas, j.
