EXTREME
DIFFICULTY WITH DONATIONS: There is a major disparity between the popularity of
our site and the donations we receive. The comments we receive clearly indicate
significant support for what we are doing and heartfelt encouragement to
continue. Donations are however by comparison very difficult to generate. We are
more than capable of making this work. Give us a boost. Thank you sincerely. /
