Diane Furst Costello I recall 'BellTel' people always being giving and charitable! Do you think you and your friends and family could PLEASE purchase just ONE of your Christmas gifts to save just ONE starving child? All they need to do is go to www.Tampogo.com/ShopWithLove and buy just ONE gift! Thanks in advance. You could make a huge dif...ference. 18,000 children die every day. Only child will die if someone doesn't help. My goal is to save 2000 children by April 1. PLEASE HELP!

Marianne Keaney Stevens Anyone else unhappy that Anthem is going to be the exclusive provider for (pre-medicare) retiree health care? I tried to get info on options and, after waiting a long time on the phone, was told nothing will be available online until after 10/28.

Susan The Strowger Exhibit will have its unveiling this weekend at Safety Harbor Spa. If you can attend or want to attend, please call or email Emmett Clary at 813-287-1103 or calvo49@aol.com. He is a retiree from GTE. But he worked for years to obtain a grant for this exhibit. Stowger is buried in St. Pete and gave so much to the telephone industry.
