For those who have given, our hearty thanks.
For those who haven't yet: You may have noticed those funny colored lights around your neighborhood. That, along with some nifty banners on this homepage, signify it's time for those who visit us regularly or otherwise support our mission to extend a helping hand.
With sufficient funds from this drive, we'll upgrade (finally) to a professional content management system that will let us upload more articles faster (our wonderful but overburdened volunteers now must not only hard-code and perform numerous site tweaks for each article, but manually enter all the indexing instructions, too). We'd also like to improve our design, adding the ability to comment on articles. Then there are the server fees, and the cost of technical help and maintaining security (we were knocked out by bandwidth attacks earlier this year), along with other ongoing expenses.
We receive no personal compensation for this work. Quite the
contrary, we fund operations to a large extent out of our own
pockets. The more generous you can be, the more we will do to make
this site a dynamic forum for sharing perspectives outside the box
of lesbigay liberal-left group think.
