I think we got there so quickly for two reasons.

1. I didn't have to see the pic of the Bird.

2. We didn't have to see the pic of "ole crusty".

Did you see that banner shot over $50,000 when Jim Rob kicked in the monthlies? I think that's a big part of the quick success.

It seems to me that we should be able to rent "space" on another server when we know in advance that the load will be heavy i.e. election night. I figure most big corporations, for example, have servers not doing much in the overnight hours. Wouldn't they like to defray some of their IT costs by renting their use temporarily?

I think we should thank the new freepers who have joined us (and those of you who have been harsh to them should apologize) because I suspect they have helped contribute on this momentous day! Thank you to everyone who has donated!!!

I think it's a result of all the coverage in the Great Dan Rather Memo Freep.

This was extremely fast. I didn't even realize there was a freepathon until this morning.

How about an extra server Freepathon?

How about:

everybody get it --- that they ain't no free lunch and read my tagline

Ten bucks a month puts a Freeper in the elite. You feel like you own part of this place,; which you do, instead of being a bum.
