I just made my second contribution... as promised. Although, I am about six days behind in my payment.

I plan to make a contribution every month on or around 15th.

I understand that our continued contribution and support to the cause is priceless although expressed in small amounts...

Few fund-raising ideas - specially since we are not getting contributions voluntarily from members...
1. We could start putting adverstisments on this websites...(everytime a user tries to read a posting they get a pop-up advertisement -can you imagine how annoying it will be - like some of those websites. ) The income although in cents can be directed to the CAUSE. With all the postings and views (specially with the TGIF's) we will rake substantial $ very soon.

2. We could start delivering unsolicited mail to the inboxes of all members selling viagra to you name it... to generate income... specially to those who has not yet contributed. It will be their contribution - supporting advertisements.

3. We could also start soliciting contribution via email from members and non-members.

4. We could make this forum a paid and by subscription only forum.

5. We can sell the email ID's of all the members to advertisers and make money thus.

6. OR EVERYONE CAN CONTRIBUTE.

I am know and am sure that some members will lash out against me for writing this... To all those I would only say... all this could really happen if our host Mr Khanna along with core members, directors of IP.org is not passionate about the cause and work hard to bring some reforms.

DSatish, I know you may not agree to my thoughts above - but are worth considering if our cause is bigger... so what if it has come with some small sacrifices from everyone -- you guys are already doing so much.

I have been reading posts from COSMOS (lend me your ears -series). Like his approach on the drive as well... although dont know how successful.
