Peter Jackson’s Wellington Embassy Theatre needs your help! They are currently going through massive renovations and are accepting donations! For your donation (depnding on the amount you give) you are given a seat in the cinema with your name on it for a DECADE. I personally have my own seat, as do most of the actors in LOTR. TheOneRing.net herself is buying a seat, but WhiteAslan and other members of the TORN Message Boards wanted to do something as well. They decided to buy a ‘Platinum Seat’, the last one available. Take a look at her story. [More]

WhiteAslan writes: The Trust is going to give the last Platinum seat to us, the TORNsibs. We’ve decided to have “Discussion Board Members@TheOneRing.net” s the name on it. As I’m sure you know, the seat cost over $1000. Right, now I’ve only collected $370.
I’m expecting more donations through snail mail but they are coming slower than I expected. The PayPal account is TORNado_chair@excite.com. I’m asking those people who’d rather send their doantion through snail mail to send me an email here (WhiteAslan@netscape.net) and I’ll send them my mailing address. If you could help, that would be great.
