I know a lot of people seemed to have been surprised about BOL's shutting down, and though it is unfortunate, I have in the past tried to get it across to people that it will happen if we don't get where we need to be.
Honestly I don't think I'll shut the site down if people are paying the cost of business. I just think it is a shame that it took me giving up and saying ok it's over before people took it seriously.
The bottom line is.. if you want BOL to stay online, then do something about it, I can't do this forever.

I say Tony, you give up BOL and start a theme park; you'll be great at designing the roller coasters.

Tony, I cancelled my silver subscription and signed up for a gold. I'd like to do platinum, but I can't at this point.
"Here there is not Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, slave, free; but Christ is all and in all. Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, heartfelt compassion, kindness, gentleness, and patience, bearing with one another, if one has a grievance against another; as the Lord has forgiven you, so must you also do. And over all these put on love, that is, the bond of perfection."

How much money do you need and how many of us do you need to pay it exactly?

They need as many donations as possible, and whatever you can contribute.

Yes. At least 30 people to donate $10. This if for one month.
60 people donating $5 each month, with a $60/year donation.
Man, I'd so be a contributor. I'll see how I can possibly get a paypal account to contribute more easily.

I know that's one way, but is it reliable. Remember, my mail's coming from overseas.

Oh.... forgot about that. That could be a small problem.
