*BROTHER (OR
SISTER) CAN YOU SPARE A DONATION? One thing you can say for the wing-nuts, they
do support their causes. We are going to try to build a funding model that puts
us in a competitive position with the so-called conservative oracles. Get behind
us with a donation, you'll be impressed by what we do with it. Thanks for the
opportunity, Marc Ash - Founder, Reader Supported News*
