Time for a new thread, getting ready for the election season and the Holidays, and one more very important event:

TO CLOSE THE LATEST FREEPATHON WITH A BANG!

As of Wednesday evening, FR is less than $3,000 from going over our goal of $70,000.

Nearly 400 FReepers donate unused cycles to the Folding@Home project, dedicated to curing multiple diseases.

How many of us can donate a little cash to keep FR going strong? I am in with my donation tonight.

Please press here:

Thank You Once again for taking the time to read this Thread

And Always Remember
FR NEEDS YOU!

It's been quiet here lately, with everyone needing to attend to little things like making a living and school.

Here are a few benchmarks that we will soon meet:

14,000,000 points
75,000 work units
Chris_Primavera passing me to enjoy #5 top folder
Malsua popping 1,000,000 points
Klutz waltzing past 4,000,000 points
and lots of other accomplishments that we will highlight this week.

It would be great if we have any folders who have never donated to a FReepathon popping a small amount into the hopper. Always helps for good community relations!

Hmmm. I'm somewhat familier with the concept but I have security concerns-- am I opening up a port that can be hacked??

Hello, beginning next week I will have no internet access for a month.

Is there anyway I can stockpile several work units to work on so I'm not idling for the rest of the month after finishing one?
