Some of you do not wear the Green Star.

If you truly do not wish to, I respect that.

But did you know, it would only cost you 84 cents a month?

Mine will be back shortly after Matts return as I donated through GPUUG and have been told that He has to code it in.

Yeah, sorry about that. I decided that it was "bad form" for the wife of the project scientist to be without a green star for several weeks, so I made a second donation through the link provided on this website. The green star is automatic when you do it that way. I apologize to all the GPU user group folks. Your donations are appreciated and your green stars are coming soon.

Same story here, Angela. The kitties coughed up a bit of kibble yesterday to reignite their star.

Mine is back. Got guilty and stuck in $20. Times are hard here in the UK, but every little helps.

What he said!

No pay rise for 5 years and repeated increases in bills, it's starting to hurt. I've managed to scrape together some money this month though so my little star can shine again.

Thank you for doing what you can, Andy.
Much appreciated no matter what amount.

Matt's back now, perhaps when he catches up on a few other things, he can attend to this matter.

My old star wore out today, probably that Mayan thing, so I just fixed it. I suspect it is OK if I gave a bit more than $10. I hope my new star shows soon.

LOL...
More than $10 is just fine! And I see your star has perked right back up.
Thank you for helping out.

Guess I'll have to bump this once in a while myself....

Anybody else that can spare 84 cents a month? That's a little less than 2 cans of Friskies these days.

I just realized I'm no longer one of those with stars upon thars. I think it expired either today or on Sunday.

I'll have to go visit the GPUUG.

And the kitties have gathered their kibbles today to set the tone for those who think they cannot help..........

Dear Mark Sattler,

Thank you for your gift of $100.00 via Visa on 03/01/2013.
Your gift will benefit the following area:

SETI@home - $100.00

Your confirmation number is: 109831


I know it's not a lot. I know it's not enough.
But it is more than I really should give at this time.
Yet, I think this project is more important that a couple of tins of kitty food or a few extra cuppa Starbucks. I can work it out.

Can't you???????

I can't possibly devote my Starbucks budget to Seti, because I don't have one.

But I will soon figure out why I couldn't get into the gpuug site and give a little something to the servers.
