First off, thanks to Farmer Ted and gwreck for the most recent contributions.
It ain't the end of the world that we run at a deficit most times, but I wouldn't
want the waters to get much deeper.

A couple of things about our costs:
[list:e50de9d13b]The switch to the mega-plan was necessary because of bandwidth use.
We now get 200 Gigabytes per month which we will never use but the other
plan's bandwidth just wasn't enough. $29 a month is reasonable and the site
has been virtually fault free.

The cumulative bank charges are what paypal charges for receiving funds.
For example, gwreck sent in $20.00 and paypal charged $0.88 in fees.

Domain redirect fees are for having .net and .com point to our board. This
was set up on the old kcmets account back when we were on ezboard. For
the longest time we were only charged for .com and got .net for free and
that is why this doubled. We should be able to make most of this go away
by moving the ownership of .net to the new host. I'll look into this in the
coming weeks as the expiration is probably getting close.
[/list:u:e50de9d13b]Thanks and happy posting.
