                        $918.73

Ending Balance        $3,501.29

Our current balance breaks down as follows:

$3,436.29               General fund
   $60.00               UPS fund
    $5.00               Silly Hat Fund

As you can see, December was a pretty slow month for us; we lost about $500.
Part of that is because I had to pay an estimate on two months of phone bill
(Ameritech *still* thinks we owe them for the entire centrex installation up
front - STeve's been working them over about that).  But we didn't get many
donations, either.  January is looking much, much better.

Thanks to everyone who contributed in December:

bruin, coyote, dpc, freek, gustitus, mcpoz, quail, raytlee, scott, steve, and
one other person who asked to remain anonymous.

If you would like to become a member of Grex, all it takes is $6/month
(or $60/year).  Send money to:

Cyberspace Communications
P. O. Box 4432
Ann Arbor, MI 48106-4432

If you pay by cash or money order, please include a photocopy of some form
of ID.  I can't add you to the rolls without ID.  (If you pay by personal
check, we consider that a good enough ID.)  Type !support for more info.

I thought that nestene said that the silly hat money could be put in the
general fund.

nestene did say that, but why not leave it there for now?
You never know when we're giong to need silly hats for some reason...

The $741 was STeve's estimate for *two* months of phone bill - we didn't pay
anything in November.
