    Have made a donation, and hope to be able to contribute more, there there is such an excellent return for the ME community for this investment.

    @dave30th does the 30 days represent a fixed cut off that all further contributions have to be in by?

    Yes but in California they are eight hours late so April Fool's Day has already finished by the time they get out of bed.

    On the other hand it's the Royal Air Force's centenary, so it's not such a bad day :).

    Seems to be going well!

    Did my bit yesterday. I think the 13% mark even now shows how very much your efforts are deeply appreciated @dave30th.

    I am really pleased to see this comment:
    To me this sounds exactly right. In military parlance I think ME advocacy has now just about achieved a bridgehead, but only just. Spearheaded deep into opposition territory and set a strong peg in the ground, and now in a much stronger position to widen the offensive for greater effect per unit effort. Key of course when doing this is to not take eyes off the ball, inadvertently allowing the original bridgehead to collapse and be overrun ... it is the crucial springboard for advancing forwards, and will remain so for a good while.
