Michael... Unless you're independently wealthy and can afford to support everyone who participates in this list and makes a living off of the information we gather here, I think you can feel justified in making money off of this list.
I have contributed (a tiny amount, embarrassingly) to the support of the list, but certainly wouldn't mind paying a subscription fee of, say $10 per month, to participate. It's like having a panel of experts at your beck-and-call to answer questions about what I'm trying to accomplish. Imagine what Macromedia (or should I say, Adobe) would charge for the kind of support that this list provides, immediately, I might add... "A worker is worth his wages..." and you're definitely doing a good work, Michael...
