David Rambo and Other Writers Encourage CASA Donations

by

First, I need to apologize. I actually had this information a couple of days ago but I’ve not been able to post it until now.

One of our faithful readers, Chadini(she rocks), and several other fans have been sending lunch to the writers on the picket line. She was lucky enough to receive an email from CSI producer/writer David Rambo about the much appreciated deliveries. They are actually overun with food and drink right now and would like fans to donate to CASA instead of continuing to provide lunch and beverages.

Here’s the letter:

What made the delivery extra special was that it arrived just as Jorja Fox started walking the line with us.[David Berman, William Petersen and Robert David Hall joined the line a few days earlier] We are all grateful, thank you –

Now, in all seriousness, I have to tell you that food and water are turning out to be in bountiful supply at our picketing spot. The generosity of fans, agents, production offices, and others is overwhelming. We talked about this phenomenon on the line today, and wanted to let you know that we’re more than well cared-for. In fact, we’re beginning to feel a little guilty that you and others have been so generous. What we’d really like most, if you do want to continue to show support for our strike, would be for the fans to make additional donations to CASA in honor of the striking writers. That way, our strike is helping others in far less fortunate circumstances in addition to protecting our writers’ rights. Would you mind sharing this request with any fansites you think would like to know?

By the way, there is an excellent short video that tells the story of the really simple issue at stake on YouTube. The address is:

The CSI fans are the greatest. All of us on the show — writers, producers, cast and crew — are grateful for your support at this challenging time.

Thank you very much,
David Rambo
