So what is the status of the site, Chris you mentioned there was a private offer to pay the bills?  Are you going to take it?  Is your decision on if you want to continue to run the site or not?  If it is a monetary issue I think we should try to put up a fundraising section as you had once before I remember.  I mainly want to know as per putting updates on my lifting log or what not.  If the site is going to be down in a week or so I am not going to put forth much effort to post on it anymore.

I've been considering the matter. I will keep the site up if the membership wants to pay for it. It would still require work from me, upgrades particularly, a total revamp of the main site CMS and the installation of the donation center though I suppose I could just post my paypal account instead. The renewal isn't for a few more weeks.

You've done something great here Chris... a fitting follow-thru

on the history you made on the platform.  Did you read about how

another American legend (Lee James) was driven away by others' pettiness?

Whatever the share for those who value this good,

I'm in.

Hold on, renewing domain and renewing hosting are different things, don't party in the streets yet!
