It's hard to belive only 90 of 5000 members are willing to make a donation. I would assume about 50% of the active members would make a donation. It would be interesting to know how many acounts of these 5000 got used in 2004 until now. Or maybe there are 100 real accounts and 4900 spammer asccounts. regards Andy
