Yes, you're too cheap to contibute so off you must go. I really don't care and I see it as your loss for not willing to donate a few dollars just to post. I could get by on just reading this information but I'm often provoked enough to respond.
Hi Humble and all others reading this,

for some of us it's not about the $$$$$$ but the fact that despite reassurances some of us understand that this will provide another tool for tracking us by being on a list of paying supporters.......... unfortunately some of us have to rely on our income to pay the mortgage, feed our extended families, put clothes on their backs, prepare for the near future etc.

Some of us actually work for the machines that we are railing against here and are walking a fine line since we also have to sign disclosure agreements as to which webistes/forums/chat groups we participate in - those of us who have to do this generally lie in order to maintain the ability to still participate on forums such as this!!!

Pls all of you, don't be too quick to judge that it's all about the money, some of us try to highlight particular points and take a long time to do so because we use open-sourced materials to make the point, (again to self-protect).

Blessings to all of you no matter what your decision is - stay or go, we all need to remember love of fellow humanity is the highest calling we can all strive to achieve,

Vesta.
