It is well worth mentioning that a post by Tycho over on the Penny Arcade site signals the kickoff for
Child's Play 2007. This year they have over 30 hospitals spread across five countries, and (as always) every little bit helps. From
Mr. Brahe's post:
"At the last Child's Play dinner, a man whose son was currently staying at Seattle Children's Hospital - he'd left him temporarily, to attend - literally could not produce the words to thank me. The depth of his appreciation bordered on anguish. I hardly knew how to respond, other than attribute those comforts to their true authors. The opportunity to be excellent has arisen again. Just as in years past, visit the site proper, choose your favorite hospital, and select your toy. We promise to let you know how incredible you are at regular intervals."
