Location: Newington, CT | I gather that the OFC membership rolls are rapidly approaching #8,000. If I recall correctly, members put together a prize package for member #7,000, a Russian lass who expressed appreciation, then disappeared. Are there plans afoot for #8,000? Or, chastened by #7,000, are we going to await the magic #10,000? |

Hey! Those CD's are worth a LOT! ... can't just GIVE 'em away to any ol' rapscallion who happens to get lucky and be #8,000.

Location: Phoenix AZ | 85% of the people who register never contribute anything. Of those that do partake there's a fair number that we wish wouldn't. So basically you got a pretty sure bet that lucky numero 8K turns out to be a total fooking douche bag.
Yeah, I'd think I'd contribute to a prize pack for that. |

But, for the 10,000th, I'd gladly contribute sumpin'... |

There are running from laissez faire Capitalism and corruption in the present state.
