I will ignore that comment out of respect for the people on these forums and because right now I dont have any fight left in me.
This link is nothing do with me, I merely put it here in case anyone wants to do something but doesn't know where to start.
Please consider your comments in future big_slow, as they cause great offence to someone that has lost a relative in this tragedy.
