Mark,
Please calm down. No one is dissing you. We don't want to lose you again. And for all those crunchers out there, we all appreciate your donations no matter what size they may be even if it's just encouragement. This is for all of us here running SETI. This is a way for us to show how much we care for this project.

Hey Mark we love the work you are doing around here. Please calm down we don't want to miss you again for 2 weeks. You are super enthusiastic and upbeat for weeks at a time and then you have one rough day. please keep it upbeat. I am looking at the budget and should be able to donate something small over the weekend. Best of luck all

Ok now for some stats and rules.

So far we have collected $5,470
We have a total of 47 Donors so far.
We may have up to 24 new stars shining soon.
We have 22 repeat donors and yet my math doesn't add up.
I think I will figure that out once I check the stars vs the donations. So...You may have posted your donation here, but wish not to show your star here, please let me know, because once the feature is turned on again, I want to make sure, your star shines.

Ok made the corretion. Glad you got your RCA back

Now the rules part. Only post your donations and cudos. Anything off topic including more music links etc will be hidden as soon as a Mod comes across it.
There is nothing wrong with also alerting the Cafe Visitors to the drive and you can get more off topic there.

Nuff said.
Once again, great Job Mark for starting another drive and all that have contributed
If you have issues with regards to the donation methods, Please send me a PM I am quite creative in order to help you. And yes it is only via trusted ways.
Pluto will always be a planet to me.

Just like a huge amount of seti crunching is done by the multitude of small machines, this fund drive is carried by the $10 and $20 donations.. Absolutely not possible without them.

Fellow Setizens, rock on.

I am the $100 unknown donor. The message board wouldn't let me post since I didn't have enough credit?!?!?!?! Then It did. Go figure. Great job raising the $5K plus. How far towards a server will that go?

There were a few more donation posts in the other donation thread. Just did a little update/cleanup and adding to help me in my voluunteer jobs. I appreciate the alert so. Even Mods can fall asleep at their desks.

Let's hope that the Donation Page will be updated soon (No update since 7 days) so we can compare our calculation with them.

My Kittie saw what Mark's kitties had donated and kept "kneading" my leg until I donated too.

I would have liked to donate more but donating from Australia there's no tax advantage and I've got conversion fees to pay. At least at the moment our dollar is almost at parity with the greenback... Still - I wanted to add something in.

You have all been so fine.........
Wonderful friends to the project and myself too.
There is nothing I could say now that could express it fully.

Nothing.

But, I will try.

Thank you all so much for showing your appreciation of my efforts.
These are trying times for the project. Much pain has been shared by those who wish it to succeed. And much progress is being made.
If you all can hold on a little longer, you and I shall see a brighter day.

The kitties cannot thank you all enough. There are simply not words that I can post to express it.
