My point was the use of FR for solicting funds for something other than FR when FR is having difficulties getting the funding FR needs.

It took two months to get the last Freepathon completed, and now we are being solicited to cough up for a movie prop that has nothing to do with FR!?

I admire your loyalty and devotion but instead of worrying about the 3 people in the known universe who might toss in a few bucks for this, why not wonder why it did take two months to raise the money on the last freep-a-thon.

I have some ideas.

As soon as it became obvious that Romney would be the nominee, I decided I would vote for him.

Since we’re on a Star Trek thread, I will quote Mr. Spock. “It’s the only logical thing to do.”

But then we had the zot festival. Very sad and ugly.

A lot of people were put off by vicious attacks against anyone who indicated support for Romney. People were reluctant to donate when they might be zotted.

I’ve always donated. It’s the right thing to do if you use a privately financed site. However, I, too, hesitated.

After Jim became a little conciliatory and decided to welcome, or at least tolerate, Romney supporters, I donated.

this is a far bigger issue than somebody trying to raise a few bucks for a sci fi icon.
