As many of you know the chat server died. It was a bad death, blood and oh wait, we have a couple of pc's that we tried to get going but no luck. They are very old and at best would have been just a patch.
What we really need are some donations to purchase a new computer. We are not talking top end, just a small pc that will handle the chat room for the next several years.
As you all know this is a free site but there are times when we must ask for help as we cant shoulder the cost by ourselves.
Talula and I are hoping to raise about $500. which will give us a minimum system with moniter (which is in no better shape born in 1990 and dull now).
If you wish to donate you can send something to:

I have to go with Toad would you be able to set up a paypal account for this as it will be a far easier way for us oversea's chatters to make contributions
as i for one would then feel safer making a contribution

Well I'll help setup the paypal account if needed, oract as an intermedatary if that helps. I've got to goto the shrink office today to sign a release form for disability paperwork, so hopefully that will get sent out and processed today and I'll have some money to contribute in January.

Do you mean to tell me that out of all the antiquated computers I've dragged over there through the years the chatroom can't be resurected this time? Seriously, I think that a Pay Pal account might be a good thing. This won't be the last financial crisis we might have to face. --FLO--

I do believe that is all you folks might need for a paypal payment.
Thanks so very very much for any help you all can be no matter what you can do.
