A random DU fund drive stat

[EarlG]

That's right, it's yet another irritating post promoting this week's fund drive! You're doing great - but the bad news is we're behind where we were at this time during the last fund drive. Not to worry - yet. We made our 1000 donations target last time with about 24 hours to spare.

BUT... this time we're about eighty donations behind. We really want to try and reach 400 donations by midnight tonight so we can unlock the Latest Polls feature and reveal the next mystery upgrade, but that's going to take some doing.

So come on, what are you waiting for! If you haven't donated yet, now's your chance.

Now for the random stat:

Number of donations received in the last 46 hours: 331
Number of individual registered members logged in during the last 1 hour: 1132

Interesting, huh?

Support DU, donate now!

Cheers,
EG

PS. We hope you're enjoying our new friend DU GrovelBot :)

4. two reasons why maybe the drive is behind

1. We're contributing to our candidates & can't afford it

2. Every blasted NPR station in the country is on pledge drive and we're fed up


;) J/K, EG....

8. Here's an idea. Donate for others. I did it last time. And did it this

time too. It makes you feel great to see their appreciation. It's fun to do annonymously! I picked three people that I've gotten into little spats with in the past...and I feel much better! Try it...it's worth it, and it's good for DU!!
