Any funds received can only be used to pay web-fees. Rest-assured that I will not spend your generosity on food, shelter, ice cream cones, blin-blineo, or health care. As an American in America, I gotta pay for that stuff out of my own pocket.

yes! this is fantastic!
i am excited to see where this goes. the far reach of this music seems to have an endless span. Big ups to the sight and vision. bigger ups to making community around it.
