Also a 6.7 in the last hour off Java.

We are very fortunate because we are financially able to help support causes of our choosing. Sadly, Red Cross was scratched off our list of worthy charities years ago. Half of our charitable donations go locally, much of it to our employees (anonomously, of course) and our church. The other half goes to “Samaritan’s Purse”, Franklin Graham’s organization. The best one, in my opinion.
