We cannot provide service to 100% of our Readership on the donations we receive
from 1% of our Readers. A few of you DO help support the project. The vast
majority do not. That is not fair to those who are sustaining the project, nor
is it fair to the project we all want RSN to be. We love this project and this
community, but we must ask you in the strongest terms to take the funding drives
more seriously. In earnest. Marc Ash - Founder, Reader Supported
