Brad, Jeff:

Have you guys figured out a way to get continuing
revenues from SI. New member fees will give you temporary
respite from the need for cash, but if they're lifetime
fees they don't continue. You can't expand that way forever,
or you're another social security administration. :(

And if it's from advertising, we members will bear the brunt.

I'd rather pay a few bucks a year into your pocket. Figure
out how to do that so you can stay in business.

I know I bought a lifetime membership, and I know you have to
honor that. Figure out what privileges a lifetime member that
isn't willing to ante up a few buck a year can retain, then
put it out to us that you can't survive if we don't kick in.
And give us future privileges for doing so.

Because unless you find a way of making money that I'd love
to find, you can't survive without continuing revenues from
members unless you compromise what SI is.

You've refused to do that. And we love you for it.

But if you don't get a continuing revenue source, you
will fail. And then what will our lifetime memberships
be worth, eh?

Best regards,

Spots
