Jerry, as I said earlier in that mess thread, we are going to do a moderated thread to talk about fundraising on a permanent basis. I am going to moderate it so that it stays strictly on topic. We can use this one if it is OK with you, but there is not going to be any thread drift allowed. And it is not a debate as to if there is going to be fundraising. This is going to happen, and I am looking for good, constructive ideas.

To start it off, I am going to take the responsibility of twice yearly fundraisers. Something on the order of a pledge drive, but I am open to any good ideas.

Please indicate to me if it is OK to use your thread as the moderated thread.

All the best,

Mick
