Hmmm ... that would mean that there is a lot of pessimism around ... 
fact is: we will try and need to reach also people who normally did not 
donate or did not even note/know that there is a fundraiser and we will 
need to do this in one or the other way. I would prefer the one way ... 
if I have to consider other ways, well ... I don't really want to 
consider it, for now I still believe in the community that is invited to 
play its part.

Thanks, Sabine
