Unfortunately our fuel oil heater has been running way too much, so will be needing a check to help refill the tanks.
Probably a portion will go to St. Jude and the rest for fuel oil. I admire your generosity.

Not locked into any specific one or more charities as the TMA Council hasn't fully discussed the whole charity issue ... yet.

in a way, me too - my furnace tank started steaming on Thursday and a whole new furnace got installed yesterday.  The water hardness in our town has tripled in the last decade and that was the prime culprit that killed an 8 year old Crown boiler.  Dang.
