There should be something on the mug acknowledging this event (Katrina) so that the non-tikiphiles can identify with it's purpose and will therefore be more inclined to purchase it. I don't like the idea of a "limited edition" mug as this term is usually synonymous with large amounts of $$$ and may deter some from buying. I vote for one universal mug so us lower in the financial food chain don't feel bad or are looked down upon for buying the "regular edition". I don't want to sound like a scrooge but some of us have given to the relief effort already in the past couple of weeks while still having to provide for ourselves and will not be able to buy an expensive mug for a while. I understand and applaud the motives of Holden and the others and hope this is wildly successful, I just want the mug to be attainable (heck, I might buy two). No offense, just my two cents. BTW-I was checking out Jade's site and found something I like. Is she still in business/able to do business or completely wiped-out?
