A LARGE DEDICATED COMMUNITY AVERSE TO SUPPORTING THE PROJECT: We have a unique problem. A large, dedicated audience that is averse to supporting the project. While there may be reasons, good and bad, the net effect is a constant headache for everyone. To expect that 1% of the subscribers would respond to the funding appeals seems like a modest aspiration.

He recalled approvingly something Justice Antonin Scalia had told him.
