Be sick of it — being told not to donate to charity. If you're like me, donating to charity is abstract, disconnected Romance. So we thought we would make that a little more material to help Japan directly while getting Panic software with one click fast.

Sasser also explains that there is a very personal reason why Panic wants to lead can help:

Nobuhiro, who runs the Panic in Japan, packed up his wife and two children in his home city of Kashiwa, Chiba and after finding gas, led, to Nagoya, away from the looming threat of legitimate nuclear disaster. Kenichi, our genius icon was an astonishingly, right here in Portland, when hit, and he watched it unfold stunned and disconnected: only the latest Bruckheimer production in tiny window video streaming. He is currently working on the road back to Nagoya. And although part of me wonders if it is requested in the wrong direction when it sent in e-mail me the latest ultrasonic sent his wife pregnant (it's a boy!), I knew that it was right.

If you wait to buy any application in a panic, there is no better time than now. Even if you only buy something small, like CandyBar, phase is Your bit to help. Why not take advantage of the opportunity to download all of the applications you already have, but with a Mac App Store, in order to facilitate the updating and installing on multiple computers?
