LugerForum Patron...?

Hi Pete,

Sorry for the delayed reply - but I'm just back from a three day event and trying to catch up....

In short - what a "LugerForum Patron" is - is my way of saying "Thanks" to the handful of folks who who have taken a private moment to do something special in assisting with the cost and operation of this site. It may be a $20 bill stuck in an envelope, or an unexpected bottle of Reserve, or - even an offer made to assist on repairing someting or sending me something I need - without any expectations.

Those folks understand that I pay for this site and it's operation each month. In short - I dont charge "Membership fees" like NAPCA (but could), nor have "Sponsors" (and could), have site "pop-ups" (and could do that too), have "Banner Ads" (and do that, too), nor even benefit from the sale of LugerForum patches (I don't) - but these folks realize that this site and this resource is paid for out of my pocket, and in their own way, have assisted with it's financial operation.

So - it's my way of giving my sincerest and warmest "Thanks" to those folks.....
