I like the idea of sending [form] thank you notes to persons who donate as a means of verifying and acknowledging that donation.

But I don't like that task being handled by "clones".

I'm a clone and I agree with Azizi - we shouldn't be handling sending thank-you notes to people. I think the people who want or expect them are few, and the admin weenies such as myself are here to do other, more technical things. I, personally, wouldn't care for a thank-you note. Max used to have an auto-generated message, and that's fine with me.

I don't know that Max needs people to have a big fundraising thingie once in a while, like we typically have. I think he might like to hope for a more steady flow. Perhaps a small monthly amount from a lot of people. This year is going to be tough for me, money-wise, so I'll try to dig up some auction items.
