TCN Fundraiser

 

Thank you for the support I've received during the November fundraiser!  The TCN had its start on June 13, 1998 when most of us, myself included, were using dial-up to connect with the Internet from home.  In 15+ years it's grown to over 7,700 direct subscribers from around the world.  While the TCN is a labor of love there are still expenses associated with putting it together each day.  That's why twice a year I ask for your support.  For information on how to contribute please scroll down.
