Sponsors | This just in: $95 in new donations

They included $20 from New Jersey, $25 from Virginia and, from Michigan, a gift that included this note: "It's been a little while since I last contributed so here's another $50 to keep your reporting going, Jim."

With advertising sales, that brings me to 80% of my quarterly goal. But there are only six days left! The breakdown so far:
  • Reader donations: $956 
  • Advertising: $2,243 
I'm trying to earn $4,000 quarterly, through donations of $5 per reader, plus advertising sales. Please use the "Donate" or "Subscribe" tools in the green rail, upper right. Or mail cash and checks payable to: Jim Hopkins, 584 Castro St. #823, San Francisco, Calif., 94114-2594.

    Seems like your ad revenue has slowly, but surely been increasing every quarter, Jim.
    Too bad it's just the opposite for the USCP's websites.

    I would donate but I have emailed you two times with very simple request and have been ignored both times. Poor customer service.

    Great post, 2:08. I also have e-mailed Jim about a few issues, and I have received only one response.

    He should have plenty of time to handle these things. Thus, no $.

    Oh, for cryin' out loud, Jim does a great job and is not "Ask Jeeves." Just contribute $5 already.

    4:56, how about if YOU donate your money and avoid telling us what to do?
