It's Time for our Second Quarter FReepathon - Thread 3 Posted on 04/07/2003 6:33 PM EDT by Jim Robinson Howdy everyone, Are you ready for another FReepathon? Good news: John and Tami negotiated a new contract with our bandwidth supplier and got our bill lowered a couple thousand per month! Our monthly expenses are now totalling just under $20,000, so we're setting the target for this Freepathon at $60,000. We have approximately $18,000 (and growing) per quarter coming from our monthly donors so we will only need to raise a little over $40,000 this time. Hopefully, we can do this...

The Defense Department's recent push to increase bandwidth available to troops in the Persian Gulf is paying off in spades, including more success in intercepting surface-to-surface missiles, officials say. Increasing communication lines has helped to 'close the time loop'it takes to launch a defensive strike against an enemy missile once it has been launched and is in stark contrast to the 1991 war when there were almost as many 'misses' as there were 'hits' of the missiles, they say."Although the number of deployed forces in Operation Iraqi Freedom are only half that of Operation Desert Storm, our bandwidth usage in...

I've been noticing that a number of posts have been re-titled by the freepers posting them. It's very irritating to find a decent article, search the title, and after finding no match, to post it, then later realize that it's already been posted. The search didn't yield a match because the poster changed the title. It's happened to me more than a few times, and it seems to be escalating. I glanced at the "posting guidelines" and found the following bulleted rule. Do include the original title - When you post an article, be sure to include the original title...

Welcome to the New Free Republic Donation System! John has programmed a great new donation system for us. It can accept credit cards or PayPal donations and will eventually also accept electronic checks. We have installed a new secure server system and have contracted with Authorize.net to do the actual credit card processing, and, of course, PayPal will process the PayPal donations through their system. I've changed the links on our front page to link to the new program: Donate Here By Secure Server If you have bookmarks to the old system, please update to the new. The old system...
