I've just read back through the last few pages of this thread.
Its unbelievably shitty and so is bound to be emotion charged. Kind of reminds me of living through SARS in Hong Kong, actually.
Pro has had his place trashed and is having to live off relatives' charity. Lets concentrate on helping our guy out and allocate blame later.
He might be needing cash and maybe clothes. Hopefully he'll post an address, his clothes size and shoe size so we can send him some stuff. There must be a dozen of us at least, setting aside alt IDs, so if we can all chip in $20 - $50 that'll keep him going for at least a week or two. Think about it in terms of giving up your comics for a month to help out a mate.
If he is right for cash and clothes (I've got no idea how well to do he is) then we can think about helping him replace his comic book collection down the track. Its probably wet pulp in his bookshelf.
