What you can do is, donate plasma and red blood cells. Then before 56 days have passed, donate just plasma up to eight times.

With your high platelet count you might be able to do a triple platelet donation - enough platelets to equal as much as 16 whole blood donations!

Not only is this "creepy", I'm not sure what all of this has to do with the Pruis Hybrid?

While this topic isn't directly related to Prius, I was thinking that the Prius owners in general are nice people, they would be willing to spend maybe an hour of their time that might save lives of others. The process isn't "creepy" at all.

Plus, blood donation is actually GOOD for you! See http://live.nybloodcenter.org/education/ab...0=3&sid1=14, and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_donation#Benefits
