Thank you for posting this link. I have wanted to help the people of North Korea for a long time. This was all I needed to prod me into providing some financial support. I know that donating some money won't fix everything, but I would have felt very bad if later in life someone asked me what I had done to help out people who lived lives like on the one described in the story and my response had been "nothing". Everyone who has the ability to read HN is very blessed. It is so easy to forget how so many of this world's inhabitants are forced to live their daily lives. Human's don't seem to be very good at empathizing with more than a small group of people. If we could literally feel the suffering of our brothers and sister's world wide that live under such oppressive forces, I believe that the suffering would end swiftly as nobody could resist the call to arms that would ensue.
