#1 within a few days Fred,

Spembolov.

RB is more than a very fine product, it's a fellowship of likeminded souls who love America and wish they were a whole hell of a lot younger!

#5 My story about Lichenstein seems to have got nixed. And we have fewer stories about Lichenstein than killer glaciers. ;-)

I'll kick in my donation tommorow.

#8 Done, Fred. I never did like PayPal, I'm glad you got the Amazon system.

#9 Glad to ante up, Fred. I would encourage the "window shoppers" to hit the coffers also.

Go ahead, make Fred's day.

#13 I feel like one of those callers to a talk show... "long-time reader, first time tip jar hitter"..

#14 Envelope addressed and stamped. I'll put it in the mail today, with my thanks for this wonderful site.

I love seeing new names as lurkers step up to the plate. I feel amazingly selfish as I look forward to learning new things from y'all, as I've learnt so much from those who've been posting.

#16 Done. I prefer using Amazon to Paypal.

God Bless You, Fred, in all you do online and off...

#17 BTW, who IS hosting Rantburg? Gotta admire the effectiveness of their flame-proof armor given the probable grief they get for hosting Rantburg from those Rantburg discusses.

#20 Done. Amazon was easier than Paypal.

#21 The first time my wife saw a payment to Amazon on my credit card supporting RB she thought I was hitting a pay for pr0n site! Any other guys out there have that problem?

Fred - in part - can thank TW for my donation today. It's nearly the lunch hour here at the office so my thoughts were turning to food. Then I read TW's post under the heading "Biogas from S**t in India".

Suffice to say I lost my appetite. Instead Fred gets my lunch money.

Fred: I have no right to ask but that never stopped me. Question: How much would it cost each month to keep that advertisment for the creepy "mulsim single finder/dating service" off this website?

#22 It's easy with Amazon if you can remember your password. Sometimes I have trouble with that but for Rantburg I rummage through this cluttered brain until I can come up with it.

#23 I just sent about ten dead pikas and fifteen dead prairie dogs to Fred via Amazon. I don't know how they'll do the currency conversion.

#24 Fred---sent you some devalued US smackers via Amazon. 20 seconds. If you need real money, I still have a bit of placer gold to send ye.

#25 bman, there's an "Email me" link in the yellow sidebar thingy. Drop Fred a note there. I imagine he doesn't post his address on the site because of the occasional nasty trolls who drop by.

MarkZ, always glad to help! ;-) Mr. Wife won't take me to India because he thinks I'd cry if he didn't let me adopt all the poor people -- and back when he was working there 70% of the population were not economically involved.
