Hope you give up some of that O-Neg MTH, it's really needed:

Is it O- or O+ that everyone can use/the universal donor?

Of course, it also means Mark's a little safer if he needs some... the flip side is he can't use anything but O, right?

I'm more a t-shirt guy myself. I'm holding out.

>> MTH can't use anything other than O neg. Here's hoping that DLSF is O neg as well (and not afraid of donating!). BTW, I'm A+...one of the few A+s I ever got in my life.

The American Red Cross truly appreciates the outpouring of support from the public in the aftermath of Superstorm Sandy. The response we received from donors has enabled the Red Cross to reach a sufficient blood supply to meet patient needs. Although the blood supply has been replenished, the need for blood is constant and the Red Cross encourages donations year-round.

Blood and platelet donations tend to decline during the hectic holiday season as donors become busy with vacations, holiday shopping, travel plans and gatherings with family and friends. Blood is an essential component for patient care in area hospitals, and the only source of blood is a healthy, volunteer blood donor. It’s the blood on the shelves that helps save lives before, during and after a disaster.

The Red Cross is preparing to respond to a Nor’easter storm heading towards the East Coast, at the same time as the massive relief effort for Superstorm Sandy is underway. The new storm has the potential to cause the cancellation of additional blood drives in affected locations. We’re asking donors, especially those in places not affected by the storm, to schedule a time to give blood or platelets in the days and weeks to come.

When disaster strikes, the need for blood and platelets does not diminish, even though donors may find it difficult to get to a convenient donation opportunity. By making an appointment to donate blood in the upcoming days or weeks ahead, you help to ensure that blood will be available should conditions prohibit people in some parts of the country from being able to reach donation centers or drives.

No inside info, just updating this site via what I see at www.redcrossblood.org/redskins

Seems like they post these 3-4 weeks before the drives happen.....
