A few people are offering to pay for a full month's service ($10) which is great, but not really necessary. Again, If most of us would just throw a wrinkled old dollar in the mail and send it to me this would be plenty. Of course, if you really do want to pay for a month, that's great, and certainly appreciated. Anyway, if you do want to contribute, please send whatever you want to send to me and I'll forward it to Marcy. I will also track the money and let the list members know who their benefactors are when we reach our goal. I don't want to collect a surplus of money, so please, if you're contributing, send me an e-mail and let me know how much you're contributing so I can tell people when to stop. People who don't make it in time this year can help out next year if they wish. Contributions can be mailed to: Robert Ruiz 1755 Franklin Street, No. 306 San Francisco, CA 94109 USA Thanks on behalf of all the list members!

Thanks Greg, Being Judy's biggest fan, I wanted to buy the box set of DANGER UXB for more than a year now, but I was hesitating since I didn't know if she was featuring a lot in the series. Having bought many of her movies it's sometime deceiving to see that she doesn't appear as much as we would like since she's often starring along with big names and the focus is rarely on her. Now that I know that she is in DANGER UXB pretty much and having Nick and Prentis as a "bonus" I will certainly buy it!

This is going to be easy at this rate. So with Bill's contribution, David Welle's, and mine, we already have $30. Only $90 to go. People who want to contribute let me know, so I can confirm you and keep a tally/add your names to the list. At this rate, maybe Marcy can pay Buffnet for the whole year in advance!

Now, a new direction. A new team, banded together to take the baton from Nick, and continue running the race. Learning from the mistakes of the past, and creating a refreshing, reorganized, easier, and more efficient way of keeping Space: 1999 going to its fans here. And for those who don't like it....tough. The instructions on how to use are on each package, just like each matchbook says, "close cover before striking." I've made the adjustments in my Eudora Light, and I'm enjoying seeing this new dawn.
