I could come back here entirely, where I have total control over the ads, and have considered it, but have decided that more audience for a message I think worth transmitting is worth the price.

They report a 46% increase in the number of families seeking food assistance since 2006. This includes 37 million Americans with children accounting for half of that number. More than 1/3 of these people are having to chose between having food and receiving medical care, housing and utility service on a daily basis. You can read their full report at http://feedingamerica.org You can also read my ongoing series On American Privilege at http://thecommongarden.blogspot.com/ Thank you Feeding America released a new study Hunger in America.

You really are a good influence with the tone you set, and I hope it will rub off on others there. But I'm not holding my breath.
