[SEL] Maytag Killer Photo

[Rick Rowlands]

If you register with missionfish.org then you can become approved by ebay. 
I went through this with the Tod Engine Foundation last year and since then 
all listing fees for items sold on behalf of the Tod Engine are donated so 
every once and a shile I'll see a deposit to our checking account for the 
value of the listing fees.  It works pretty well.  Now I don't know if the 
ATIS Charity Auction has been incorporated and granted a tax exempt status, 
but if it hasn't and we want to continue the auction every year we should do 
that.  For organizations like the Tod Engine that recieve proceeds from the 
auction the tax returns I fill out want the EIN of the donor.  Maybe Spencer 
and I should have an offlist chat and set this stuff up if it isn't already.
