precisely what i was about to write -- you beat me to it, erinn. (hm,
maybe i should get to work earlier ...)
for the record, i'm against having a supporters page -- it feels too
much like beating at the clubhouse door. our FAQ and mission
statement, and the fact that we exist and have all of our subscribers
as supporters, should be enough support.
