Why do they do it? Each time they're asked, it's the same answer: It's Easy.
It's easy for Fred Conner and Paul VanLeuken. They're the Tompkins County Red Cross Donors of the Decade and both men are proud of the fact that they've voluntarily donated 14 gallons and 19 gallons of blood respectively. Their amazing accomplishments, combined with the donations of other Tompkins County residents, have saved or bettered the lives of up to 18,933 people in hospitals in the Red Cross New York-Penn Blood Region. In a recent interview with both men, they talked casually about their accomplishments and their commitment to the Tompkins County Red Cross blood collection efforts.

 Everybody loves model trains. And when you mention the annual Fingerlakes Railfair, everyone is enthusiastic about it. Last weekend the Cornell Railroad Historical Society hosted their 25th Railfair at Lansing’s the FIELD. The Railfair featured model layouts in just about every scale, with 54 exhibitors and vendors at 185 tables, test tracks, and door prizes. While the price of gas may have been responsible for a smaller show this year, the Railfair is one of New York’s largest model train shows. ”This is still a good sized show,” says Railfair Coordinator Jim Torgeson. “It is by no means a small show.”

Dear IMO,
My wife and I are getting a lot of junk mail these days. It seems that our mailbox is filled with more and more each week. Is there any way to stop these companies, banks, and other institutions from sending us their junk?
Thanks,
Frank
