We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: Can you believe what they predicted?

"TV will never be a serious competitor for radio because people must sit and keep their eyes glued on a screen; the average American family hasn't time for it."  ~Author Unknown, from New York Times, 1939

I suppose we found time for sitting in front of a small screen, and for that we had to cut other things out of our schedule. Hopefully people will realize what they're really doing and that there's no point to staring at a screen for four hours a day.

"The marvels - of film, radio, and television - are marvels of one-way communication, which is not communication at all".  ~Milton Mayer
