Great website, but just an observation: These advertisers give the Rice people money each time you click.

The same applies to BWW. So the next time you say that the site is free for us, think again. Every time you click, you give BWW money.

So WE ARE PAYING YOUR SALARIES, BWW.

Don't forget that.

It's no song. It's the truth. So the next time you hear someone say "We shouldn't complain, we're here for free" (insert spineless whiny complacent voice here) you can tell them that's bullcrap.

Thanks for posting this...what a stone cold gas!


"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

Muslim, no one is forcing you to stay.
Go start your own whiny post if you want, don't use mine for your crap and denigrate this cause.

""We shouldn't complain, we're here for free" (insert spineless whiny complacent voice here) you can tell them that's bullcrap."

But you are here for free, someone else, not you, is paying the expenses to run this site. You contribute zero dollars to it. If someone offers you a free ticket to a play that they paid for,it's still free to you.

How are you, Fenchurch, or who ever you are, paying for this site, when no money is coming out of your pocket to use it?

That was a fun time, thanks Elphaba!

Not to denigrate the site, it's a wonderful cause.

But just because the money doesn't come out of my pocket doesnt mean Im not causing their revenue. Take an economics class and think.

How about you take a remedial writing class first?

Actually, with two writing awards under my belt, one for Anthropology and one for Music Scholarship, I don't think I have to.

This site is great. When I first found it I spent a good 45 minutes on it and have been back. it would be great if high schools encouraged students to go onto it, it would be beneficial!

Muslim, what does anthropology and music scholorship have to do with economics? I'm not trying to be rude, but if you say you have credintials for something, back it up.
