I'd pay. But, I'm not even currently up to date on paying my bills, so I don't know with what I'd pay. Is a hot check ok? Just kidding, of course (although my creditors don't think it's all that funny).
I like the idea of a fund drive, or slightly-coerced-voluntary donations.
I think there should be a financial health page added, and that could contain info such as members who have donated, and discussions about possible fees, and maybe 'scholarships' for folks who can't pay, and maybe 'honorary' memberships for folks who come mainly to provide information (like james mentioned).
Plus, we could use the page to discuss possible psychobabble treasures for sale, like PB underwear, or gimme caps, or pens/pencils. OR we could probably get some of the DRUG COMPANIES to underwrite the babbles (with their budgets we'd be in good shape for years!!!), and then we could get on PB and swear we all use that drug (the one of the underwriter) and how great it is, and then after that we'll just go back to normal PB stuff like bitching about how crappy that drug is.
Hey, I think that may be a winner!!
