DedarMary Jean:
On the whole, I agree that MJF's site will serve a special purpose of
fundraising from those who are prerhaps more in a position than some of us
to contribute to his foundation. From that angle, I can't fault him at
all.
But as for the Flash issue, I should note that I recently upgraded to
Netscape 4.7, and the site still told me I had to download Flash! That's
where it lost me......
And, as a web designer, I know that 80% of internet users

Excellent idea-- would you be in a position as a web designer to do it?????
An optional way to use the site would be much appreciated.
