That's great to hear you're doing well Bob. I was just a tad concerned since before you owned the site it seemed everyone kept passing the buck as if it wasn't possible to earn any money. You definitely improved on the model with upgrades for paying members. The search engine works really well now and can find just about anything. Oh, speaking of that, you might want to add a 2005 search box. It goes current year and then 2004. I have three suggestions for making some extra bucks from the site. 1. Create a CD or DVD of the site and all the posts and sell it for 69.99. I know I would pay to own an easy to access library of past SI posts. 2. Tee shirts, coffee cups, mouse pads etc. with the SI logo. My tee shirts from 6 or so years ago are getting pretty worn out and ragged these days. :-) 3. Celebrate SI with click sponsor day. Make it the first day of the month. Fein poverty if need be to garner support. That's all, have a great day and keep up the terrific work Bob. Best, Mike
