That said, your contribution would help to ensure that Matt is able to continue to run the mailing lists (Grumman and others) and provide the services you do use. Some folks do contribute and that=92s what makes this service possible. No free =93Team-Grumman=94 tote bag or mug though;) I=92m not trying to be holier than thou, and honestly I don=92t use this list as much as when I had my Grumman so I may not contribute this year but that=92s the system. I agree it=92s sometimes like getting whacked over the head to contribute since the volume of traffic on this list is noticeably increased by the contribution messages but he has to let folks know he needs contributions I suppose. Maybe there=92s a more tactful way?

Implemented for the first time last year, the Matronics system selectively sends out the Contribution messages to those that forgot to whip out the 'ol credit card this year to support the continued operation and upgrade of the Matronics Email Lists! Don't you wish PBS worked that way? :-) You heard that right. Once you make your Contribution, these support requests messages during November will suddenly stop coming to your personal email inbox! I wanted to implement something like this for a number of years, but it was always such a daunting task to modify the back-end List processing code, that I just kept putting it off. Finally last year, I just decided to bite the bullet and put the code-pounding time it to make it work. A few days later, bam! A working system! I really do appreciate each and every one of your individual Contributions to support the Lists. It is your support that enables me to upgrade the hardware and software that are required to run a List Site like this. It also goes to pay for the commercial-grade Internet connection and to pay the rather huge electric bill to keep the computer gear running and the air conditioner powered up. I run ALL of the Matronics Email List and Forums sites here locally which allows me to control and monitor every aspect of the system for the utmost in reliably and performance. Your personal Contribution matters because when combined with other Listers such as yourself, it pays the bills to keep this site up and running. I accept exactly ZERO advertising dollars for the Matronics Lists sites. I can't stand the pop-up ads and all other commercialism that is so prevalent on the Internet these days and I particularly don't want to have it on my Email List site. If you appreciate the ad-free, grass-roots, down-home feel of the Matronics Email Lists, please make a Contribution to keep it that way!!

Unlike Mark, GG, Matt requests donations to help defray the costs of operating the web site and bulletin board(s). I don't know if you've noticed, but, you don't have to wait up to 24 hours to have your post read on TeamGrumman-List like you do on GG. And, TeamGrumman-List has never been closed down because of some spam filter that your particular service provider has installed. And, you won't see problems with stuff in your postings being blocked. The TeamGrumman-List Bulletin Board, set up by Matt, and run by Matt, uses the latest software and hardware and it's kept up-to-date. You don't need to send in a donation, but, if you do, you get a gift for your donation. -----Original Message----- From: Ronald Millman,CPA Sent: Fri, 9 Nov 2007 9:13 am Subject: Re: TeamGrumman-List: If You Got This Email, You Haven't Made A Contribution Yet! :-) I read that you are asking for money.
