III woould be a lousy fundraiser.. I have always found it embarrassing to speak to a group about any kind of funds. This is why I will donate. Mike implied that they are after the big bucks, but I think they would appreciate the smallest donation.. "A bucket of water is a collection of drops of water."

I know this would not solve funding problems by a long shot, but how would everyone who volunteers, minus Cindy and the other sighted people, feel about paying half a subscription and working at the same prices for the other half? I would not stop uploading just because I had the 25 dollars, as I know that a lot of people do now with the full amount. I am happy the way things are right now, and I just love volunteering. Just brainstorming. Reggie who has a lot of trouble thinking "outside the box" (smile) -- No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
