Michael, IMHO, the benefit of keeping the team.net lists (right
now I'm only on this one) going outweighs Mark's occaisional requests
for money. I've personally sent a couple of checks, one recently. So
far, I like it this way, all voluntary. It works out to a tiny fraction
of a penny per message. It won't work out to $100K, however, as I expect
the majority of listers don't send anything. Yeah, if you're new, this
might look a little strange (I think this is the 3rd time in the 4+
years I've been subscribing), but it's genuine and, IMHO, worthy. I've
also gotten a personal thank-you message from Mark for each
contribution.
