Folding Forum

So is something not better than nothing? NO,NO,NO!!! Time is what this project is all about! If all you can donate is the widows mite, then god bless you. But that is not going to get the WU done in a timely fashion. That's for me to decide, not you or anyone else. And THAT is EXACTLY why the point...
