You obviously have not been paying attention to this thread. Most around here on the west coast can't put their money where their mouth is. And even if they did they are too wrapped up in foamer politics. Some here bash places like CSRM for it's crimes against Santa Fe steam preservation as why they will never spend donate hard earn cash. I'm sure there will soon be a few here that will use the death of the 4450 as an excuse why not to donate to WPRM. Just look at the few already bashing WPRM on this thread.
