Just saw your post below where you said this site would be gone in 3 years. Hmmm...want to make a bet on that? This site has been around longer than a lot of supposedly "big" sites that have failed recently. It has been around for 3 and a half years already, and in that time, there hasn't been a single month yet in which traffic did not increase over the previous month's traffic.

Now, I'm not saying that I'm in favor of a membership fee or not, but someone asked if you would pay $20 for a lifetime membership, and you replied saying that the site would be gone in 3 years and that you'd pay $10 a year...the only way you would come out ahead by not paying the $20 for the lifetime membership is if the site tanked somewhere in the next 12 months...after the first 12 months, you'd pay your second $10 and be out a total of $20 already... :)

I'm just giving you a hard time because I don't like the thought of this site disappearing in three years. I happen to think it will continue to grow and become a better resource than it is now.

By the way, we're somewhere close to 10 terabytes of data transferred in the history of the site...something like half a billion HTML files transferred (not counting graphics)...well over a million (perhaps 2, by this point) posts made...and counting.
