Greg has posted this weeks short list of nominees for the Odysseus Medal competition. As usual, it's a brilliant collection of posts from across the RE.net.

One of our posts on the Aaron Anglin tragedy, Tragedy Begets Triumph: Why I Love this Community, was nominated. I've never voted for one of my own posts before, nor encouraged anyone else to do so.  

But this week I'm going to ask for folks to at least consider voting for this post. Why? Donations to Aaron's family have basically dried up since Friday. When it comes to something like this, any publicity is good publicity as every single dollar helps. If we can get this in front of more people, maybe more people can donate.

We've done a lot of good for Aaron's widow and babies, but it's a mere band-aid on a gaping wound.

You can vote for the "People's Choice Award" here.
