Every time I look away that thermometer rises. I hope you all appreciate the effort I'm putting into looking away!

Hi all. I am an "Old Guy" of 70 years who started coding in the mid 1970's when computers were very different. Learned my stuff from 3 computer scientists who guided me through some very strange stuff and I had a blastl. I ended up hooked and never left the sight of a computer. My wish was that I had the kind of community and resources that are available today. Keep up the good work and and I will be watching what happens. Just do not stop when you reach $6,000. You can always use the funds to expand your work in other ways.

How would you want to stop volunteered donations, put a stop-sign at the site? That's not going to happen :D
Any donation, big or small is more then welcome, mouser said that several times, in the last 6 years :Thmbsup:

I think what he was saying is to expand the scale of the thermometer if we reach $6,000 and keep the fundraiser going throughout the month, something i think we should do.  Just remember, donations won't continue at anything close to this initial pace; most of the donations so far have come people responding to the special fundraiser email/newsletter that went out over the last couple days.

Wasn't that what you did during the previous fundraiser?, it felt (and feels) so natural and rewarding to be happening :-*

Wow!

Three days + 15.5 hours into it and you're almost at goal!

I've never seen anything like that for site like this one. Tells you something doesn't it?

(NPR & PBS could learn something here.  :D)
