Several here have offered to contribute to the expenses generated in my barrel testing efforts. Of course there would be no testing without the barrels that have been donated, and for that I am most appreciative. There is a chance that some of the $ will be recovered if articles are accepted for publication.

IF SOMEONE STILL WANTS TO GIVE:
You may send a tax deductible donation, clearly marked "For Hause Guatemala Mission Trip" to Mountain Ridge Baptist Church, 23104 N 67th Ave, Glendale, AZ 85310. This will go toward the airfare and trip fee for several 20-somethings with no money, and to buy food for poor people and abandoned widows, women and children http://www.picturetrail.com/sfx/album/view/19699775

Thank you and Dios le bendiga

I believe (and hope!) that everyone who contributed received an acknowledgment from the church, but wanted to thank those that did here also.
A short trip report and pics are up on the website

Nice little follow up report Doc Drew, humbling how far five hundred dollars will go compared to many things that may not be so important in my life.

Sorry George.
I'm up to $2500 out of pocket on the failure analysis, tensile testing, composition analysis, MPI and radiography.
I hope to make enough from the articles to offset those expenses.

However, I would happily and humbly accept contributions toward the Food Distribution Program (we give $500 every month) and the expenses incurred from the April Guatemala mission trip (we paid airfare and the trip expenses for 5 of the team members) in lieu of financial help for the barrel testing.
ANYTHING given to the church would ONLY be used for Guatemala, and is tax deductible.
