A cold, rainy day here in Salt Lake City, a good day to stay inside sitting at 
the keyboard,
no desire to head out to the chilly garage.  Listening to the radio as I sit at 
my desk, a
local community supported station that just finished up its spring fund drive.  
Nine days of
asking for funding to keep it on the air.  I spent a few hours down there 
answering phones,
doing what little I can to assist in keeping it on the air.

And naturally it made me think of keeping Team.Net on the air.  I spent some 
time working on
getting caught up with thank you notes to those who have sent in contributions 
over the last few
months, still have a ways to go.  But I resolved to be a better person about 
it, and decided
to send out this year's fund drive message a bit early.  I'm really going to 
work on timely
responses.  We shall see.

So here it is.  If you appreciate having Team.Net as part of your life, I'd 
appreciate some
financial support. I'd like to raise enough to get a new SATA controller card 
for the Dell
SC1430 that is running everything, as well as a secondary SATA disk.  Or maybe 
even a whole
new server.  And a private island in the South Pacific and a garage full of ... 
 okay, forget
the island, it would be nice to do some hardware upgrades.  Those of you who 
have been around
for the last 20 years or so know I am not doing this for the money. Hours spent 
on Team.Net
compared to contributions over the years is one of those things I would love to 
know, but have
no desire whatsoever to know.  So it goes.

And I'm sending out this one, single message.  No hounding you for nine days.

Thanks for your support,

mjb.
