Well, I'm damned if I'm going to read 800-something posts to find out if anyone else said it (I'm hoping at least a few dozen did), but all I see anyone asking for is a very general overview of accounts, if we're going to be asked to keep contributing. Very basic "we need this much, and here's where it's going to go". Which is exactly what you just (finally) gave us, thank you very much. Though a tally of what you've got and the gap might be helpful.

It's offensive to hear continually about how it's your living room and your rules, and then to be hit up for money. How many living rooms have you been in where the host passes the hat for the light bill?

So we got the rough accounts, thanks. Too bad you had to tack this "or else I'm going to throw FR over a cliff" crap onto the end. Teenage girl stuff.

Now, I'll start the bidding at $100. A hundred bucks to biff the first moderator. Anyone join me in putting a bounty on their little pointy heads?

Who the hell are you to pretend that your opinion is valuable, required, remotely intelligent, or that you are among some "need to know" group who needs to verify the funding of this site? Disrespect only goes one way here - from you upwards, not vice versa.

Good point. The "living room" analogy was ALWAYS inane, and always will be, and becomes ironic within the funding context.

But then, I'm not here for mere common sense.

I'M HERE FOR UNCOMMON SENSE!
