I Sent Mine
I sent my contribution -- and paid the Paypal fee. If everyone sends a small contribution there should be enough cash to pay the bills and maybe even up the server space!!
Thanks for everything, guys.

"Chu-ching" Keep up the good work guys. I love this site because of the passion for the 986 and your political views.

The collective knowledge of members has saved me hundreds if not thousands of dollars over the years. Giving back some of that money was an easy decision. Let's keep the forum going and growing.

Someone asked me if the ACLU or similar type of organization is involved in defending folks. The answer is it's the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) located in San Francisco.
They work on a pro bono basis and have more asks for help than they can handle; in part because of all the Righthaven suits. This means they try to take the more promising ones that can hopefully set precedents.
Unfortunately their case load was full so I was referred by the EFF to a group of intellectual property gurus - Ridder, Costa, and Johnstone, who served as my attorneys.
They took my case because I was willing to fight and they thought I had some compelling arguments. Reality set in when Righthaven brought in a "new set" of lawyers who indicated they were going to be just as obstinate as I was. Many legal arguments & counterarguments were traded - it became clear that Righthaven wanted to have a precedent case as well - and they'd have been happy to have it been my case. Also note my previous post about additional liability to others being potentially dragged into this.
After toting up the figures to go all the way to the 9th circuit court I decided I had better settle.

As others had posted, the amount of money I have saved from the use of this forum has been great, but the knowledge and confidence I have gained you can not place an amount on.
I too have sent a PayPal contribution to a great site.
Thanks to all the staff and members for keeping this site the best!
