The full pages are back up, good news.

But the 404 thing I doubt is FR, it happens frequently to me. Out in boonies, crappy internet speed, but I check my speed daily and it doesn’t seem related.

I’m too teeny for the NSA to mess with, so... I have no idea. When I can get on FR I open a lot of articles so I can read them.

And btw I do donate, so if you think I’m a freeloader, I ain’t. And I live in 15 grand a year, so my donations are not huge.

Maybe WVKayaker was playing around. I too donate. Not going to mention amount but I do donate. Really don't think WVKayaker was meaning to go after you or I.

Please keep me updated little jeremiah. I value your thoughts. One can never be certain about those nsa people. At least I'm not. Thanks lj.

I wasn't pointing fingers, and your 15K a year is bountiful compared to my SS checks. I am also a monthly donor. I made lots of money in my life, but set up some trusts for my grandchildren. I choose to live a different life, now. I stay busy, though I am officially "retired". I operate two NGO's here and in Africa.

I moved to the Philippines back in February for two reasons. One financial, the other cultural. I have begun to despise the country of my birth. I cannot call it MY country, any more.

FR is the last outpost of civil minds, IMO. I get a constant view into the minds and hearts of many folks, but most of us here are of like minds with the basics of life. We learned from the past and try to live for the future. My future is here now, and I am loving it.

But, I must keep in touch with my past... and FR is past, present and future all in one!

Thanks for your response, but don't take it personally. I posted the "donate" tag NOT directly to you, but to all!
