    I know this has nothing to do with apps, but as many people should hear this as possible. Please be generous with your money and text "HAITI" (without the quotes) to 90999 to donate $10 to the Red Cross to help Haiti. The money will show up on your monthly phone bill. Thank you for your generosity

    I checked and this is legit, it's written on the Red Cross website.
    Thanks for posting.

    This should be in the Lounge.

    I posted it here on purpose-people don't really look at the Lounge as much as they look at Game Discussion

    I donated a week after it happened, it feels good to help, even if it's not that much.

    Now the earthquake in Chile......some people live in such tough conditions....and all some people on this site care about is apps and their iDevice.....

    ...it's not actually our duty to care about the people in Chile and Haiti. If we do then great, but focusing our efforts on issues that mean more to us personally isn't a bad thing.

    i'm not arguing that point....but what I am saying is that if you have ten bucks to buy GTA, then you certainly have 10 bucks to give to Haiti, or Chile....and that is what you should do. You could help many lives instead of playing a virtual game for a couple hours.

    Okay fair enough ;) It's just the last thing you said sounded a little judgmental.
