If you received this particular Matronics List Email message, its
because you haven't yet made a Contribution to support your Lists!
This is the first PBS-like funds drive message under the new
distribution system. The new system selectively sends out the
Contribution messages ONLY to those that forgot to whip out the 'ol
credit card this year to support the continued operation and
upgrade of the Matronics Email Lists! Don't you wish PBS worked
that way?
You heard that right. Once you make your Contribution, these
support requests messages during November will suddenly stop coming
to your personal email inbox! Pardon me if I seem kind of excited
about the new feature. I've wanted to implement something like
this for a number of years now, but it was always such a daunting
task to modify the back-end List processing code, that I just kept
putting it off. Finally this year, I just decided to bite the
bullet and put the code-pounding time it to make it work. A few
days later, bam! A working system!
Anyway, I'll stop gushing now. I really do appreciate each and
every one of your individual Contributions to support the Lists.
It is your support that enables me to upgrade the hardware and
software that are required to run a List Site like this. It also
goes to pay for the Commercial-Grade Internet connection and to pay
the rather huge electric bill to keep the computer gear running and
the air conditioner powered up.
Your personal Contribution matters because when combined with other
Listers such as yourself, it pays the bills to keep this site up
and running. I accept exactly ZERO advertising dollars for the
Matronics Lists sites. I can't stand the pop-up ads and all other
commercialism that is so prevalent on the Internet these days and I
particularly don't want to have it on my Email List site. I'm
pretty sure you don't either.
If you appreciate the ad-free, grass-roots, down-home feel of the
Matronics Email Lists, please make a Contribution today to keep it
that way!!
