Iraq Coalition Casualty Count site in desperate need of spare change!
Michael has been paying out of his own pocket, and it's just getting too pricey, with the large traffic.

The traffic just keeps growing and growing. Poor Michael has pared that site down to where it is operating at peak efficiency for the least amount of money ... and it saw us through for quite a while. But now we definitely need to buy more disk space and more memory.

What he's going to do is compact things down as tight as he can (and jigger a few things to boot) so that we can get through this coming week. The site will have to go down when it's upgraded, but he'll arrange for that to happen on the off hours. The trick is to get us through the 2,000 death mark without further outages.

So ... Pat and Michael would both be most appreciative if you all could possibly spread the word to have anyone you know who likes the icasualties site to check under their sofa cushions for loose change!! Then hit that PayPal button at the site with whatever they can comfortably spare so that Michael doesn't have to take the whole hit out-of-pocket.

PayPal is at the lower right of the front page.

Thanks everyone! :hug: :hug: :hug:
