"I just wanted to clarify something about the current donation drive: we received the following email text last month (blah blah no solicitations quote). However, it seems like the United way drive may be contradicting this mailing. is this particular drive exempt from the usual policy?"

Well I can not only tell you what I *would* do, I can tell you what I *did* do, since I'm in the same asylum as you.
