For what it's worth, Matthew, this board member certainly appreciates your 
contribution to the TFN. Contributing to the community is a lot more than just 
sending in a checque. It is about contributing to the essence, ambiance and 
substance of the community. 

That being said, the "community" of the TFN is certainly not limited to the 
geographical confines for Toronto. After all, how can you say that a part of 
the Internet is restricted solely to one city? 

Users from outside Toronto not only add content to the TFN, but prove the fact 
that we are but part of a rapidly growing global community.

Whether you donate time, money, equipment, news articles, or even just plain 
look around the 'net, you and all others are always welcome to the fold of the 
Toronto Free-Net
