I tried talking to Purdue people about how to making payments for 
grafting coop apples. Jules Janick answered my email and was very 
friendly. He gave me the email address of someone at the Purdue 
Foundation to correspond with. Said person did an admirable imitation of 
a email black hole. I gave up and dropped the idea. I really got the 
impression that they aren't set up to handle individuals doing small 
quantities and would rather not have to know about it. So the report 
that they said "give something in our name to your favorite 
charity"sounds realistic.

P.S.: Just got back from a two week trip to Nigeria. Sadly, way to early 
for mangos and other wonderful fruits. I'll post about that in the next 
week or so.
