Clyde stubblefield

Posted this before and it disappeared . . .

Don't know if this is common knowledge ( or a scam - don't think so, but would be a whole lot better if it is )

Apparently Clyde Stubblefield has cancer and doesn't have the medical insurance for treatment, there's a website set up to aid him at http://www.clydestubblefield.com

I just did a little google search to find out a bit more about this.

Your thought of a potential scam - there does look to be a fair few 'organisations', charities what have you, set up for Clyde. Which sets the grey matter in motion 2 fold. Obviously he's super respected in his field, and people are genuinely diggin very deep for the cause. Or, some may have seen an opening and are thinking of cashing in. Nah mean?

I'm playing the devils advocate here, but you'ld hate to make a contribution to somebody as great as Clyde, and it ends up in some spotty herberts back pocket.

If you want to make a donation, be careful and do your homework.

Im not 100% but I believe this was mentioned in an old wax poetics. I think the site is genuine...maybe.

Clyde's cancer surgeries were a total success.

However, no health insurance.

The paypal account is for these guys:

You're right, it was in the last issue (Issue 4).
