I don't know if you've seen that Tom Cruise movie, but it'd be "about a hundred dollars".
(Keep in mind that "Rain Man" me is always underestimating stuff, except my own capabilities).
mumble..ten million...mumble...5...mumble...5,769! Is that your card?!
Sometimes I have to debase myself, but what I want to really do is Dbase the site (move to a database platform for PipingDesign.com).
I have always thought that the site could be supported by some kind of benign combined sponsorship of non-competing companies, wherin each would compete for the status of being "hey, this is cool", and back it up with web stuff.
Everything helps, although the more, the better.
In the meantime, I figure that 10 empty beer cans=a dollar.
