I was given permission to pass this message from EJO on to whomever would be interested - so please feel free to pass it along, yourself! I encourage you to donate to Sextol Sol's cause as part of your holiday giving, as I have.
-------------------------------------
From Edward James Olmos:
I would like to extend my season's greetings to you. As we approach the end of another year, I am often reminded how blessed I am to have the friendship and respect of all of you. I am humbled and grateful for the support you give to me and to my projects. I couldn't do what I do without you.
Now that the giving season is upon us once more, I would appreciate it if you would consider offering your support to an organization whose work is close to my heart. The people of Sexto Sol Center for Community Action are tireless in their efforts to serve impoverished communities in Chiapas, Mexico and Guatemala. With economic times being what they are, it has been especially difficult for non-profits to maintain their former levels of contributions. I know that many of you have generously givien to Sexto Sol in the past. I appreciate your thoughtful kindness more than I can say. I am hoping that even more of you will consider making a contribution towards helping them this holiday season. No amount of a donation is too small. Pennies add up to dollars, and dollars change lives.
You can go directly to http://sextosol.org/ or reach them through my web site to read more about the vital work that is being done. There are a variety of ways that you can help. If you are a coffee drinker, bypass Starbuck's one day and send the money to Sexto Sol through whom, by the way, outstanding coffee can be purchased.
I hope that you will find it in your heart to help. There is no greater holiday gift you could give to me than this.
With all my love and appreciation and good wishes for a blessed new year,
Edward James Olmos

Have you ever dreamt of watching a professionally-produced DVD that contains Q&As done by James Callis, Richard Hatch, Michael Hogan, Edward James Olmos, or Mark Sheppard? Wouldn't that be a fantastic BSG-themed Christmas present?
My buddy Frosty was taking notes during Luciana and Jamie's joint Q&A on Starfury Sunday. You can read his extensive transcript
