As for me...

I'd really like to take up the burden/mantle again, but I can't promise how consistent I'd be.

My situation right now is that I only tend to be able to access the internet at my day-job (and there, at that dreaded slave-wage nightmare, they have both DMusic and Boycott-RIAA blocked by corporate filters.)

At home, our cable internet keeps getting cut off due to the fact that we are poor and often are late with paying the bill. (There are half a dozen other things like rent, gas, electric, groceries, car repair, etc. that come BEFORE internet access just so I can make any money at all. And, I already skip out/default on other debts like student loans/old credit cards, etc.)

Andrea and I struggle, and we do the best we can to catch up.

I'd really want to commit myself to you folk and the Boycott-RIAA effort/message/agenda.

I just gotta dig out of this hole first.

In the meantime, I'll do what I can do when I can.

(Oh, RaidHHI, one of the reasons I was starting a thingy about Boycott-RIAA over at reddit.com is that my filters at work haven't blocked reddit yet. And, because they have some open-source ideals and are not totally evil despite being now the property of Conde Nast. Conde Nast has not figured out how to leverage the huge popularity reddit has into a business model, so, it is sorta "like the old days" over there still.)

Won't last forever (I know.) Look what happened to facebook.

We all do what we can, and if I can take up a little of the slack, with the time that I have-- I'm glad to help.

I do appreciate the work and dedication you put into the site schmoo. I know it's hard on limited income.
