Wow, I guess it's been 3 years since the last "fund raiser". This site is obviously a labor of love and not a money maker!
If you have found this site useful, please consider a donation to help keep it running. My expenses are roughly $400 per year. For the server, software licensing, backups, etc. Also the SSL certificate which I accidently let expire yesterday. Sorry about that! It's back in place now but could take a day to refresh.
Fyi - when we did the last fundraiser (in 2017), there were 18 donors and we raised $520. There are about 150 folks who regularly log in and view the site.
Your kind donation can be sent via PayPal to mark <insert an at sign here> straydogma.net
Or via Venmo to mwpearson <insert an at sign here> outlook.com.
The email addresses are a little obscured to make it more difficult for computers/bots to harvest it.
If you prefer snail mail, you can make a check out to "Mark Pearson" and send it to:
1131 NE Dean St
Portland, OR 97211
Thanks Much for your support!! I hope this forum is helpful to you and I really appreciate everyone's contributions of content.
Most of my time on the site now is just trying to keep Russian/Chinese/Eastern European hackers out. Really! Apparently they can make some money by posting advertisements and getting click-through revenue, etc. I guess we should be flattered, but it sure seems like there are better targets out there for hackers than us!
I hope everyone is staying healthy and washing their hands!!
Cheers,

PS: I'll keep a running list of donors below, to acknowledge their generosity. I'll just do first name/last initial for privacy reasons.
