 Hey Gang—
 
 Would you please consider sending a little something to the VO-BB fund?
 (just use a PayPal "friends and family" giftie to DB@DBCooperVO.com)
 
 If everyone who uses this board once a week gave $5, it would cover the cost of the recent disaster and migration, the not inconsiderable time it took to move this beast, and a tip for the admins who handle the housekeeping.
 
 Seriously— if you enjoy this board, please think about it, and don't just wait for Philip to buy me the internet.
 
 Your Czarina
 Deebs
 
 I really hate having to ask for money— especially given the outpouring of support you showed when Fritz died. (Damn— it has been 2 years.)

				| We tend to forget, don't we?  And even though we check in every day we don't even see the BIG BLUE BUTTON. 
 Shame on us!

				| I really do appreciate the support. There were once a stalwart group of members who sent something monthly or quarterly, but things have dwindled considerably.
 
 Honestly guys— the VO-BB has received 2 donations this year.
 
 Thanks for any and all.

 Thanks for the reminder.  Added to my holiday list.

				| I'm a subSilver kind of guy (ComicBook is a little too loud for me in the mornings)... the ball there has no reminder. Maybe putting it up top with the FAQ & Search links? 	  | Lee Gordon wrote: |  	  | Maybe that blue ball needs to flash and spin. | 
 
 ... or maybe you could get all techno and send an automated PM every time someone racks-up another 100 posts
   
 Anyway... a BIG thank you Deebs.

				| Interesting that I'd see this thread on the day I learned I have a surplus in my PayPal account.  No, really.   Sending some of it your way. _________________
