  1. Thanks. Peace to Kenny, I hope the donation site is for real. PayPal doesn't like any spaces in the donation address.

  2. Thanks wight. Yes I'd erroneously introduced a space, now gone. Your comment is valid. I have voiced my concerns to Evan Parker who passed them on to Mark Wheeler. I said how it would be comforting to receive a confirmation of payment. I'm sure this could be set up through PayPal (has it yet?). If there was a dedicated web page with a donate button it would be an improvement. I get the feeling that the technology is a bit beyond Mark and I've suggested he finds someone who could help.
    Rest assured though that this is for real. Thanks.

  4. Paypal is rejecting my credit card for some reason; I hope Mark is able to find some help in setting up another way to receive payment. If not, are there any purchases (e.g. bandcamp) that would go directly to Kenny?

  5. My mistake: I discover that I DID receive a 'You have sent a payment to Mark Wheeler' email from Paypal. This makes me feel more comfortable. Onx - has your payment shown up yet?

  6. Hi Andy - no, it's still not booked.
    BTW - Probably I will not be able to answer mails or here as my pc has severe problems to launch windows.
    Maybe I will be offline for some days...
