80,000 Freepers and Growing - Freepathon

3-1-02 | Topaz

[Topaz]

When Jim Robinson started Free Republic in September, 1996 to expose the corruption in government and particularly the Clinton Whitehouse, he was alone. Now six years later, Free Republic has 80,000 registered members and who knows how many visit this site often, just to keep up on the latest conservative thinking.

Folks, you all know where this is going, Free Republic is a user supported website and it is time to support it. Four times a year we have this freepathon to donate a few dollars to pay for the bandwidth and expenses necessary to keep Free Republic online, and we do so with gratitude and cheer because of what is offered and accomplished by the existence of Free Republic.

Free Republic does not charge a membership fee or get supported by a government grant. No, people from across the World make donations large and small because they see the value of Free Republic. So if you're one that appreciates this site and want to see it continue, please send in a few dollars to help keep it alive.

Thank you Utah!

Hello NJ Freepers. I'll only ping you once (promise!) so that I'm not too much of a pest. Would you come and bump us when you have a moment, thank you!

Isn't it always like that, though? I'm waiting for cleaner government (working on it through the recall process, really).

[steveegg]

Thank you Virginia.

The FReeper mailman just raised the flag on your mailbox.

We still have dirt roads here too...:-)

[firewalk]

Thank you. A vanity thread...lol! (-;

Neighbors, I apologize in advance if I flag you more than once- I'm pulling out old bump lists stored on floppies, and going thru old self-searches for names.

I also want to ask a favor- will you take a minute to flag at least 2 more FReepers, and ask them to flag another 2 and "pass this message on to 2 more?"

If you have a bump list, please use it- this is so important!

If we all pull together, we can get this matter settled even faster than the last time, and keep Free Republic a light shining in the media-sponsored darkness. John R.

DC Chapter bump for the freepathon. Good work, everyone. Keep Badjoe busy.

[steveegg]

It's still going, and it's only day 2, so you're not late. Welcome to the party.

An excerpt from Grampa Dave's Free Republic Lifeform post:

"This is a wonderful description of what Free Republic really is. It is a living and evolving Life Form to battle the left wingers and those who would destroy this country!...

Free Republic needs a constant infusion of cash to keep the Free Republic Life Form alive, viable and to grow. If we believe in Free Republic, we must donate each month or quarterly to keep this incredible life form alive... Good stewardship is what this world needs, not good intentions. Good conservative stewards will insure that the Free Republic Life Form continues to grow, be viable and thrives!"

The Free Republic Life Form continues to grow -- no matter how large or small a contribution, your "infusion" will make a difference and will be greatly appreciated!!

Ok, I've got to go for the night. I'll be back to bump tomorrow. Here's what I'll do -- I'll donate an extra dollar (up to $10) for every Freeper that bumps this reply between now and 7:30 PT (one bump per screen name please!); and extra dollar (up to $10) for bumps between 7:30 and 11:30 pm; and and extra dollar (up to $10) between 11:30 pm and 4:30 am tomorrow. That'll be an extra $30 for Free Republic just for keeping this bumped periodically! Turn Ed's "Self-Search" box into toast!!
