I'll add a little something here.  I've been on KRNet since sometime in the 
early 1990s, although I owned a set of KR2 plans that I had gotten from 
Jeanette Rand some years before that.  Mark Langford has been on the net 
considerably longer than that, and has worked tirelessly to advance the state 
of the art in building and flying these airplanes ever since.  He moderates and 
manages the KRNet without dues, fees, or annual whines- but it's not free at 
all.

I've never been to a KR Gathering in the 25+ years that I've been on this list, 
but I have from time to time sent Mark some money to help with the costs and 
time that he spends maintaining, supporting, and troubleshooting the KRNet.  If 
I think back, I can count on the fingers of one hand the times that there has 
been any sort of glitch, hiccup, or transfer of list hosting in the years I've 
been here.  It all happens behind the scenes, and Mark handles it promptly and 
transparently.  I get to enjoy the sights and sounds of the Gatherings via 
Mark's writeups and photos of the events afterwards, and I get my daily fix of 
airplane stuff via this list and a few others, and that's about the cheapest 
entertainment I can think of.

All of which is to say, if you're like me and you enjoy this list, consider 
sending Mark a check or a Paypal donation to keep him in the game.  There have 
been a few times when he has gotten fed up and has come pretty close to 
slamming the door behind him on his way out, but I'm sure glad he hasn't.
