Homeland Security and Governor 'Doofus'--I know it's pretty 'cheap' by government standards. {;~)

Things like bandwidth cost a lot of money. Jim started FR as a hobby, funded solely by him and it has gone beyond his wildest dreams. Check out the statistics to see how much traffic this site gets per day, week month. On a normal day, FR averages about 15,000 posts and threads. That's a lot of information being transferred.
