That's the problem with trying to run something based on "tin-cupping" - after a while it usually fizzles - the "audience" just gets tired of it.

Many, myself included, have suggested presenting an actual realistic annual budget that includes not only M&O but reserves and contingencies as well - publishing it - tracking it and sticking to it.

As much as a PITA it is, maybe it's time to do it!

Two things

 

1.? Remember just a few months ago I sent you a picture of my new great-grandaughter.? Well, she is growing quickly.? See attached.

2. I got my government stimulus check yesterday and the first thing I did was put some of it into the remote base kitty to help pay our monthly bills. I know that things are tight right now.? It scares me that we are getting no new members and the rest of you are possibly suffering. I'd hate to see the remote base indirectly a victim of coronavirus because there is not enough help to pay our monthly bills, which I have down to $200 a month.? If you can afford to give the remote a little stimulus, please do.

If you will PayPal $200 I will? dedicate a remote base month to you on the homepage - - "THE MONTH OF APRIL REMOTE BASE IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY W6XXX" ?? Silly, I know, but it gets you recognized and appreciated

I just logged in with Guest2/Guest2 without any issues. Using Chrome.

Usually that error means that pop-up are being blocked.
