Has anyone tried sending anything to the address listed in the Inner Flame
booklet,  Charitable Fund for Rainer Ptacek, P.O. Box 13719, Tucson, AZ
85732-3719 ?  The album was released several months after the bank returned
the checks, and I think the previous address we had for the bank was a
street address, not a P.O. box.  I bet this address from the album is still
good.  Anyone know??
