Josh in Chicagoland flagged this: Computer meltdown creates traffic-light chaos in Montgomery. Josh’s comment: ” This shows just how fragile our way of life is – one computer goes down causing gridlock! This should be an eye-opener and stress the importance of having alternate routes for G.O.O.D.”

Judy Kendall, the director or Anchor Charities sent us an update on the Linda Rawles Memorial Fund, that benefits The Anchor Institute Orphanage and School, in rural Zambia. Judy wrote: “We are moving forward with our plans to build a boarding school. Our blueprints should be completed in the next few weeks. Our goal is to lay the foundation for the boarding school in May of next year (our next scheduled trip). We’re hoping the boarding school will serve two purposes. One, it will allow paying students to attend school at Anchor and those funds can be used to support daily expenses for all that attend school there such as food, books, etc. Two, it will allow our little orphans to integrate with other children.” JWR Adds: My sincere thanks to the more than 170 SurvivalBlog readers that have thusfar contributed more than $9,000 to the Linda Rawles Memorial Fund. The Anchor School is a very worthy charity!
