| > Church of Satan? | | | | -- | | No, its the richest Church of them all, the Roman Catholic Church. The | way they carry on you would think they are down to their last 10 cents. | The retirement place is actually a closed down state-run sanatorium | with about 100 pre-fab houses on the 22 acre site, about 220km from | Cape Town. The priest and three helpers run the show, but the RC | church won't give them any money to run it on the grounds that the site | does not belong to the church authority. They have been operating on | donations for the past 35 years. I got involved as there were a spate | of burglaries, even though the residents are mostly OAPs and exist on | the state pension which is minimal. The burglars tied up some of the | old people and emptied the houses. | | I had some Paradox 708 dialers which I programmed to communicate with a | 15 year old base station which I repaired. I have donated enough of my | time and effort to getting them up and running, and only forwarded your | replies to them. What they do is up to them. Whatever they get I will | no doubt have to set up and get it running as the priest can't even | type let alonr operate a PC. | | Maybe one of you rich US Citizens would like to donate something useful | to this cause. It is Mimosa Rusoord, Stellenberg Farm, De Doorns 6875. | I am due to go there on 30th Jan to set up another 12 alarms. The | equipment consists of the Paradox dialer, a 12 volt power supply and | one push button. I got a donation of 150 12 VDC 1 amp psu's from an | electronics supply, plus some boxes to put it all in. Paradox gave me | 100 dialers so all I have to do is assemble it, supply the n/o push | button and a bit of cable and fit it (15 mins per job) but the | travelling is 2 hours each way. I get paid about 1/2 the petrol cost, | that's all. | | Regards | Chris |
