Subject: RE: BS: if charged, would you leave...
Hey Clinton. When you perform at pubs, I'm assuming you get paid. Does some or all of the money they pay you come from cover charges? I know that hanging around here isn't really like going to see someone perform in person, but for a lot of us, it is a lot like hanging around a pub. Would you go hang out at your local pub and not do anything to help support the establisment? Ever? You would at least buy drinks and not just take up real estate at the owner's expense, right?

If it costs money to cover the expenses of this site, what's wrong with pitching in to help carry those expenses instead of leaving it all to Max to sort out? Even if it's just in the form of donations rather than a fee?
