[WikiEN-l] Donation banner and strongly negative reactions

[Jay Litwyn]

Even without looking, I do not think so. If some semblance of a unanimity 
arrived at observing a day of rest every week, then that is what would 
happen, basically. We would end up with a mirror that splintered and ran 
only on that day. If we were forced, due to financial constraints, to 
operate six months a year, I do not think there is any law that would compel 
operation outside those constraints.
