Subject: KEEP SITE ALIVE

If someone wants to help Canarsie.com stay alive please email gregg at editorgaw@aol.com. YOU MUST PUT KEEP CANARSIE ALIVE IN THE SUBJECT AS I HAVE BEEN GETTING TONS OF FAKE EMAILS. I will give you an address to send $ to...All I ask is for a few dollars.....I have to learn a new web site creation program and the cost of this alone is over 200.00.

Hi Gregg-
Hey, like any business model, your website should have a financial plan to it. If you are looking for feedback from us, I'd suggest a couple of things. First off, you have to determine what the costs are in order for you to run this website. The costs associated are not just the dollar amounts for software, hardware and site maintenence. You should put a $ figure on how much your time is worth to do the actual maintence work too. We are all able to understand that what started as a hobby for you, has taken on a life of its own. Some of us value this website and want you to keep improving, and enlarging it. You may want to just have a voluntary setup and very casually ask for small checks from us. I think that is a stupid idea, but I may be wrong. I think a password access website for an annual fee of about 5 or 10 bucks apiece would be smarter, more even/fair and perhaps even throw you a few much deserved bucks. Maybe even enough for an occassional Canarsie website party! Anyway...I came to check the 911 page tonight and can't believe the plethora of messages I'm going to be leaving here tonight. I wasn't aware that Canarsie has spawned such an incredible amount of leftist, disgusting drivel. Time for battle!
