i appreciate the info and i would not disagree with your comments/experience.
again though, that was a long time ago and i don't think it's fair or accurate for someone to characterize americans today as not caring about that then. based on everything i've dug up about it, it was fundraising in new york city. it wasn't regional and certainly wasn't nationwide.
