Have you read every word Jim has ever posted here? I have not and I have never read what he has said about commercial support of the site.
I know what it takes to run sites like this. I go back to putting on-line BBS’s back in the 1980’s via dial-up. What I do today with technology dwarfs this place.
It pains me to see how they struggle to keep FR up and running. My point is that if the folks that keep the wheels running around here want to make things easier for themselves that is A-OK with me. If you consider the value of a site like Huffington FR is certainly worth something. A lot financially and in countless other ways.
All I’m saying is that if the wonderful Robinson family want to realize a bit more of the American dream and want to do so here I’m all for it. Jim is a fantastic person surrounded by talented people like his son and they could do so much more with a little more $$$. If they don’t choose to do so that is up to them. This is their sand box.

No, I haven’t read every word that JimRob has ever posted and my memory isn’t perfect, but I do recall a recent post where he threatened to shut the site down rather than go commercial. Instead of trying to lecture me, try asking JimRob himself, or better still, start your own site what with all your vast experience!
