It's late and I don't know how many of you will log in before midnight but ...
American Express is running a competition for funding for non-profit projects. One of the competing projects is for funding to study neurofibromatosis type 1, a genetic condition as common as cystic fibrosis or muscular dystrophy but far, far less well known. It can result in tumors growing on nerves anywhere in the body, including the optic nerves, the spine, or in the brain. If you go to the Children's Tumor Foundation, www.ctf.org, and look under What's New over on the right, there's a link to a funding project for NF 1. If you would, click on that link and go vote for this project (or another project if you see another one you think is more worthy). I'd take it as a real favor. Voting ends at midnight.
