Likewise. Christ is a loving God, and though I don't wanna bring religion in this, I truely! believe through His love, grace and nonfailing mercy/blood, we'll get through this.


I am praying.

Pax Cristi, and God bless.

Oh man! I don't really have much to say. I cannot donate and I wish I could but he will be in my thoughts and prayers. That's all I can do. Keep us posted.

He didn't have the Find my Mac feature turned on, unfortunately. That was the first question I asked him.

As someone who has 3 brothers and several family and friends who are members of the law enforcement community, I can concur with what Sarah has said. It is highly unlikely that the machines will be returned or located. The incident smells of a drug related crime for quick cash.

It's highly unlikely that they can recover this stuff. I know a freind who got robbed and 48 hours later the police showed up to take a statement. He has since never seen his stuff again. I mean I hop they can. If they can use the find my mac feature then that's good. that way they can know where the thing is located and they can get it. I hoep he can recover his stuff.

Good luck.

Subject: [mac4theblind] David Poehlman, long-time list member, was
robbed, read on

Hello, all,

David Poehlman, a member of this list, was robbed last week.  Stolen
were not 1 but 2 computers, a Macbook and an even newer Macbook Pro 13-
inch.  Also taken were a Braille display and his magic track pad.

These items are quite valuable to any owner, but even more so in
David's case.  He is a disability technology consultant, and those
computers were his lifeblood.  He has helped countless persons with all
issues mac-related, including I'm sure many on this list, as well as
providing invaluable information to all of us on all things mac.

I am hoping that we can gather as a community to help David.  I am
looking for ideas as to how we can best aid him so that he can continue
to carry on his work.  My thought was that we could gather together and
donate money so that he can purchase a new computer, or we can purchase
one for him.

Please write with your ideas.  You can write to me off list at:

marcy.weinberg1@xxxxxxxxx

I know that I can count on you, the list members, to step up to the
plate as you help a fellow member who has been so terribly violated,
and thank you in advance for responding.
