Time for a short history lesson.

Some of the responses to this post are pretty comical. I think it's
simply that people do not know the history of FishGeeks dot com nor
the heritage it represents in internet aquaria. Originally known as
JAWS (Just Aquaria Web Site) it was (is) an extremely important step
in the evolution of Aquaria websites, and among aquarists is
considered probably one of the three or four most influential websites
in the hobby, particularly in it's early years; along with The Krib
and the now defunct CHOP (Cichlid HOme Page). To ask for financial
support for this type of website through a raffle is not unusual or
out of line; if the site makes the 200% margin mentioned then it is
still quite a bit behind the priceless information and support it has
generated through the years. If it was a new, upstart site then I'd be
questioning it myself; but Mbuna and this site are well established
and proven in integrity. My two cents having been added, I remain
respectfully -- Mark
