54. I'm surprised you would say that in light of what happened in AL last week
We have a neighborhood group on FB and it has been invaluable about getting out the word where help is needed...neighbors who need assistance cleaning up after the storms, tarps for their roofs, etc. Last fall we used FB to organize a fund-raiser for a young neighbor who was dying of cancer and had no insurance. As a result she was able to die peacefully in her own home surrounded by her friends.

Most of the info I get on FB is about events going on around the Birmingham community. Maybe you should try it before you condemn it and its users.

Signed,
Stupid Birmingham Resident
