This is a great new forum. It may have slightly fewer features than Coolboard but the speed is great, not to mention the freedom from ads. I’m temporarily without my normal high-speed Internet connection and with a 56K modem this is way faster than Coolboard at 900K. So I’d like to add to the many expressions of appreciation to Rich for all his work.
Now, regarding the payment of dues (by visiting the Hunger Site, Breast Cancer site, Kids Aid site, etc.). I don’t visit these sites, despite the worthiness of Dale’s intention. I won’t embark on a diatribe about why except to say that if I’m going to “give” anything, I’d rather give my own money, rather than allow commercial concerns to pursue their aims, laudable or otherwise, through my consuming their ads.
So… Dale, if you are willing, I’d be happy to send a small donation periodically to be paid into a fund which you could send to whatever charities you want. Or to make a charitable donation in the name of C&F. Then I needn’t feel any guilt about not “donating free food” (a strange idea, when you think about it). How about it? Anybody else feel the same way?
Also – does the hosting of this message board entail any expenses for Rich (other than loss of practice time)?
