Can you spare a moment to help save a life?
Considering that I've managed to vastly exceed my normal posting rate and blog at least a little something every day so far this month, I think I'm going to be informally commemorating National Disability Employment Awareness Month by challenging myself to have NaBloPoMo a month early this year. I apologize in advance if this means I end up cluttering anyone's flists.
Today's post was initially planned to be something inspired by a conversation I had about adaptive technology, but then I received a link from a friend for ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif)
projectdownload and decided that this takes priority. I've thus far been lucky to never have to fight the insurance system for needed medical coverage, nor have I been turned down for insurance because of my disabilities, but there are times when it's been a very real concern. I've seen other people I know be denied coverage and it makes me want to scream or cry every time... it's maddening how so many of the people in this country who need medical help most are the same people who are least able to get it. I didn't have the resources to spare to help them then, but I've at least enough time to spare to download a ~3 kb file once a day to help ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif)

I can't vouch as to whether or not MegaUpload will follow through on their part of this, I can't vouch that anyone's clicks will actually be counted, but I can vouch that you're not asked for any identifying information and the .txt file won't kill your computer or anything if you download it, and this doesn't feel like Munchausen-by-Internet to me.
Pass it on?
