LEGALIZE MARIJUANA ($0) . Perhaps we should set a minimum donation?
Causes no harm, really - the silly comments won't be visible to anyone
not digging through the donation log, and if they do that they'll be
aware enough that they're personal comments.
I suspect it's someone figuring that our sitenotice is updated live
rather than running off preselected comments, and hoping they can get
a message in there... and if so, let's not tell him and see if he
tries again with more money ;-)
Yes, exactly :-)
This is one of several reasons the comments aren't updated live in the
sitenotice.
