Call for assistance
It's nice here in the islands, but there are a few downsides. Communication with the outside world is spotty, for one; connection to the information superhighway is intermittent and fairly expensive, for another.
Got asked a question which will take more rigorous research than can be done over an intermittent dial-up connection. Someone in my family needs to know if the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center is a non-profit organization. I've tried researching it, but the progress of technology means that the Web is less and less well-suited to a sub-56k connection.
Might someone with a decent connection (and the time to spare, natch) check and see whether Memorial Sloan-Kettering is a non-profit organization or not? Any info would be appreciated; just stick it in a comment to this entry.
Thank you kindly, one and all.
