Fellow Pulsar Builders/Owners
I am a lurker and occasional participant in several lists.

The Pulsar List is the only one which has approached me for
a donation. The other lists are all free, seem to work
fine without charges. I think we could get into a difficult
situation with costs and charges if we all end up having to
fund this list

Should we be moving our list to another provider?

Dear Listers,

The List of Contributors (LOC) is just around the corner!
On December 1st I post a list of everyone that so
generously made a Contribution to support the Lists. Its
my way of publicly thanking everyone that took a minute to
show their appreciation for the Lists.

As a number of people have pointed out in their
Contribution comments, the Lists are a whole lot more
valuable than your typical magazine subscription!

Won't you take minute and assure that your name is on the
upcoming LOC? Tell others that you appreciate the Lists.
Making a Contribution to support the Lists is fast and
easy using your Visa, MasterCard, or Paypal account:

http://www.matronics.com/contribution

Or, by dropping a personal check in the mail to:

Matronics / Matt Dralle
581 Jeannie Way
Livermore CA 94550

I would like to thank everyone that has so generously made
a Contribution thus far during this year's List Fund
Raiser! Remember that its YOUR support that keeps these
Lists running and improving! Don't forget to include a
little comment about how the Lists have helped you!

Thank you!

Contributions are completely voluntary. Make a contribution if you wish, or don't. Its totally up to you. There is no advertising on these lists other than this annual Fund Raiser to support its operation. Many make a donation, many don't. Its been run that way for over 21 years now.

I encourage everyone to continue using the Pulsar lists whether they make a contribution or not. The List is for the unmoderated exchange of ideas specific to the given subject.

Best regards,

I wouldn't stress over this. The matronics list serves many, not just this list. Having run the previous pulsar-builders list for years and years I can attest that there are real costs to this. And while we kept that list free for those years ( acknowledging the voluntary contributions), the new list does have many features the old one didn't.

If you feel compelled to donate then do it. If not, no big deal. In the past, people would often ask, "How can I help?". Now you can in a small way. We explored many other options over time & many of these are now gone or there is a fee.
