Reason for not using paypal, a 9% surcharge to use the service. While it may not seem a lot, it adds up to the coffers of paypal.

I was dumb enough to accept when Joe offered to make me an owner of the
group. ;) Enough people have said they'd kick in $5 to keep the group going,
and have more space, that I've gone ahead and upgraded. I fronted the $220 (not
$200 as I thought it was) for the upgrade. Once my payment processes, we'll
have 20gb of space for documents, photos, and attachments. If you want to help
me out, my PayPal address is wmrmeyers@...?I can afford to pay $5,
myself, so I need 43 donations of $5 via PayPal Friends and Family, or enough
to cover the fees they charge if you don't want to do F&F. This gives us a
year we don't have to worry too much about this, at least!
