You are helping real people with real needs, and you are controlling your own tax bill. If you do not want to participate that is fine. Check into it. Get the info and then make a decision.
Actually I am proud of my healthy cynicism. I take very little at face value, especially when I have an uneasy feeling..........

You have said in this thread and in the other "tax avoidance" thread to "check it out". I repeat my request for you or Merlocke to please provide me with any links to CHT website or to WHO endorsement of CHT.

I am surprised that WHO cannot buy at discounted prices and instead have to pay full retail. Maybe they need RFD?

Based on everything I have read to date, I HAVE made my decision - I will not participate in such a marginal venture. I have kept out of this post until now, but have posted now to warn other "less cynical" folks on RFD who might be tempted to take a flier.
