We are now at 201.  Before you wonder if my math skills are lacking, we have had some cancellations.  That is ok and fair.

What is utterly amazing is that the majority of messages that I am getting contain the phrase "I want to support the FOG".  How great is that?

Thank you for your participation.

I agree that we have the greatest members here!

As a side note, I would like to say thank you to the customer service agent at Paypal who just assisted me.  It seems that we triggered many security concerns with the success of this program and the inflow of payments.

Thanks again!

 
That's hilarious about paypal.  Oh heck count me for another one... sys 4.  I'll pm when I'm nor using phone.  Yay 225

It just added to my last 24 hours.  I am a dog lover and my 15.5 year old Golden Retriever is nearing the time.  He has had a great life and I have been nursing him for a few days until I can help him to a better situation.  Last night after eating he started choking on his food.  I came to his aid and frankly saved his life.  Unfortunately during his struggles he altered my nose.  This morning I was attending to that issue.  I will not be starring in any movies for a while unless they are horror movies!  [scared]  Then upon returning home I see the email from PayPal that says that I can receive payments for the Fogtainers, but I can't access the funds.  [eek] WHAT!!!

The email gave me steps I had to follow to unlock, and I couldn't do any of them because of the nature of this project.  I had to call.  I did tell them that I understood why this tripped the triggers.  Let's face it, I set up a Paypal account for this not long ago.  Money starts coming in from all over world in small to medium amounts, and then I haven't accessed any of it.  I actually respect what they did.  Luckily the person on the other end of the phone listened to me, he followed my instructions and found this thread  - and Shane's banner  [thumbs up] and the order of the universe was restored. 

All of this points to what I have been saying.  This is such a unique project because of the cooperations and contributions and embracing of so many people.  I may have been in a slightly different situation than others and that helped, but if any of the others  - primarily you guys and gals - had said no, or did not recognize the possibility of this succeeding on such an unprecedented scale - I would be writing about something else. [TH] [big grin] [big grin] [big grin]

The golden retriever is resting peacefully.

SO... we are at 225 and waiting for those who said that they would be ordering at the last minute.
 
Guys, I just want to express my sincere appreciation for the outpouring of support for this venture.  Peter has put forth a lot of his personal time and effort to make this happen and has chosen to return any profits back to the forum in the form of prizes to support future contests.  He is one of the most humble, generous, genuinely great people that I know.  A special thanks to Peter for making this happen on behalf of the forum and its members.  

What a fantastic expression of support for the forum from those who purchased these unique and exclusive systainers.  I hope you enjoy them and get great value out of adding them to your stack.

[thumbs up]  [thumbs up]  [thumbs up]

Peter,

Sorry to hear about your Golden Receiver.
It is sad when you are losing a dear companion.
