Thanks everyone for your offer ... but as of now I am trying to avoid
donations. Frankly I do not think donations will cover the cost of
running
GroupStudy. Plus it will make my job 10x more difficult.
Every day I help people with subscription issues associated with
GroupStudy.
Most people are pleasant, gracious, and understanding that I do this as a
hobby.
But two or three times a week I receive an e-mail from someone or some
organization demanding I drop everything I am doing and fix whatever
problem
they are having with GroupStudy. They act as if they are paying a fortune
for the service and somehow they have a given right to participate in
GroupStudy. In the end it is almost always an internal problem within
their
organization (i.e. anti-spam filters, firewalling issues, etc.). I can
not
imagine what it would be like if those people had actually give some token
donation to GroupStudy.

The path to a desireable destination
is often more difficult than the path to stay where you are.
