[Movieman]

I might take you up on that later, thank you

We now have another cruncher with this, so 5 in total - anyone else who can throw a rig here for a day or so would be welcome

[WesM63]

I think we're having a decent output to them and here's a public "Ataboy" to Mike047 who from the looks of it put his whole farm on Little Jake's team!
Your one of a kind Mike!

THANKS Dave, I like helping the small teams and generating more interest. I only put 26 boxes[41 cores] on it though. The rest are servicing team Zirconia.

You guys had a GREAT output yesterday 35k+ if I remember correctly.

Regardless of the team or where the points go, it is all VALUABLE research and anyone with a box[full time/part time] should consider doing the WCG work Somewhere.

Hi everyone this is what I like about people who do DC and especially XS they will help others when needed. I am moving a few computers over to this for a week.

Thanks Rob - good to have you aboard mate

Looks like some machines have returned after their weeks work - many thanks to those who contributed

I'm going to stay a bit longer, along with a few others I believe, to push XS to the top of their roster and hopefully give them a million - so if anyone else wants to help out you are more than welcome.

[WesM63]

I moved the DX back to XSTM as they're gonna need all the firepower they can get.

[Hard H20]

Dave / Ady,

PM me the info for the team, I will move a machine over as well.

[[XC] Adywebb]

Thanks Hard H20 - PM on way!

[Movieman]

Thanks Hard H20 - PM on way!

[[XC] Adywebb]

Yep, Dave is right - lets look at a big push after June 1st

Hi all I'm Jake's Grandad. I just popped over to say a VERY BIG THANKYOU for your support

GREAT to see you here, and we are glad to help.

[Patriote]

Oh wow. Just came across this thread...

I must admit that it has been quite a while since i felt i had emotions by reading a text. Now, after reading the text linked in the first post, it kinda reassured me. I had emotions. And seeing someone so close to that little boy coming down on XS just to say a big thank you, is one beautiful thing.

This is why we are all crunching!

My next machine will be for that particular team.

Hiya GM - its great to see you here, and thank you for your good wishes, we have all been delighted to help in celebrating the short life of Little Jake.

Patriote - thank you for posting this as it reminded me to re-read the links again which brought back the many emotions it did the first time I saw them

The fact that XS can find time to show such wonderful support to the detriment of our relentless pursuit of other goals is a measure of just how great this team is

Very nice to see you here. I have 2 daughters that are the light in my life.
When I read the story on Jake it grabbed my heart.
Please give your Daughter a hug from me and tell her she's a very special lady in my opinion and that in this cold world there are people that care.

Folks, Guitar Man has posted over at WCG about a new arrival for his daughter Kathryn, the mother of Little Jake.

He is a 8lbs 3oz baby boy named Toby, but unfortunately he suffers from a similar condition as Little Jake, SMA Type1, and is unlikely to see his first birthday

Please read the thread over at WCG, and I'm sure he would welcome any words of support at this time.

It brings tears to my eyes when I see these little children and their parents suffer like this - lets keep up the great work we do here and help bring an end to this suffering.
