On behalf of the other Community Associates on the fundraising team, thanks 
Alec. We did intend this fundraiser to be populist, especially the Personal 
Appeals on the editor campaign. To that end, if you'd like to help out with the 
fundraiser further, please contact me directly and I can help figure out where 
to place you. Thanks again for the compliment, we really are proud of the 
fundraiser.
