I've been noticing the continuous questions in the Gaia's Forum for the "japan great quake" and noticed something interesting:

Many people had got the idea that Gaia is being cheap, and poor for only giving "10,000 Dollars" to the relief. And its keeping the money to themselves and coughing up the 10k to the relief.
And snooping around, I found some facts:
-Users REQUESTED that there should be Relief items!
-Gaia is actually donating the max amount money the IRS can support! Donating the relief funds is ONLY allowed 10k at a time!
-That they are selling OVER 10k in items hopefully, to give to a separate relief funds in Japan.

So, Do you believe Gaia is doing the right thing?
Or do you believe this is just a money making Hoax?

Technically, someone did research and posted that the only reason their giving 10k is because their donating SPECIFICALLY to the Red Cross organization. They have many different relief group names so they could donate more. Either way, Gaia is making more of an effort today than yesterday for a fact.^^
