   Five years ago, I think you would have had a good response to your   
   idea.  Now, as you can tell by the fact that there have been fewer   
   than 10 posts this week, that any kind of grass-roots drive to get RD   
   rolling again is going to be very difficult.   
      
   Not trying to rain on your parade, but I just don't think that enough   
   people care about it to make the kind of impact you would need to get   
   someone with deep pockets involved.
