Question raised about this sentence:

And we need help meeting them. Right now we're paying for all of these things out of our own pockets, as well as paying for things like food and rent :for ourselves so that we can continue to work on grassroots bootcamps, library materials, and more. In short, we're (willingly) in the somewhat :uncomfortable position of working 12+ hour days in order to (lose) money.

What was the question? It's true for me, at least... I'm bloody well determined that the three of you will break even, though. Mchua 17:12, 8 June 2008 (EDT)


I'd consider maybe a tinyurl for the spreadsheet link, though that's pretty nonessential.

The statement is very true, but I don't think we should actually include it in out letter. It makes us seem desperate for money, which will probably not come across very well for potential donors.
