Hi Mary and Dave,

I’m a regular reader and I fan. I am glad to subscribe. But I don’t want to do so through PayPal.

Is there a way I can just charge my VISA monthly? I really am not willing to pay a fee to PayPal.

Keep up your great service. Would a check for a year’s subscription be the answer?

To push a metaphor farther than it maybe ought to be pushed (though I hear they're more flexible if they get a little exercise): Sometimes folks buy icing in a can just to eat it with a spoon. Sometimes. You know, if you put a little effort into making the all-ads page into a gallery, I think it might actually be kinda fun to browse.... Also, this is Trek's webpage, which could do with a link.

I’d like you to consider a page of employment classifieds. It seems like it would be fairly easy to be set up, and really useful.

oooh…and the ads all together make a pretty, colorful collage, too!

Re:[2] Bob, I’m not sure what the problem is — it works for me.

Hi Dave, The link to the “all ads all the time” page does not appear to work.

I always wondered about the use of the verb “throw up” in web development. Maybe it means I’ve eaten too much cake.

It’s nice to see all the ads in one place. They serve as a kind of who’s-who of engaged local organzations.

In any case, you should link to the new “all ads” page on the advertisers-with-the-chronicle page (the one that’s currently linked to by each ad). And “ad” some information on how to advertise, too!
