I am a teacher in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. Being a teacher I am into helping others. I thought "donatin was a really good idea. Of course the competition had nothing to do with it! . Okay I admit it I am competitive as well. Will we find aliens, I hope so. It would be a unifying discovery for all mankind to realize that we are small and shouldn't take ourselves to seriously. Besides "disasters" often lead to a united front.
