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.

"$360,000 per year to run this website? I would have never guessed it would be so much.

Bandwidth is Eeeeeeeexpensive!!!

(not to mention Servers, Hardware, Software, and Maintenance)

[d14truth]

"So what did we do to get off of the ping list?"

Think it's a 'conspiracy' against 'Grampas'? or is this website a 'Global Crossing' holding? {;~)

Hiya Nic! Pretty day here on the east coast!

[WillaJohns]

This website uses ENORMOUS amounts of bandwidth, the amount of which is very costly. Mr. Robinson has to pay his electric bills. We who love this site choose to contribute to the expenses of keeping it up and running. Pretty amazing considering it started with one man's hobby, isn't it? It's a great example of doing what you love and the money will follow. I'm still trying to figure out what I love to do.

Here's more donations just in:

$10 monthly in from California
$100 from New Hampshire
$50 from Virginia
$25 in from an unknown location

Way to go! Thank you all!

[smorgle]

I'm in. Here's to another month of hair-raising adventure!

[mystery-ak]

Is the tally board taking into account those of us who contribute monthly by credit card?
