Revised funding efforts- Introduction of advertising and Voluntary Donations

Regular visitors to this website, approximately 20,000 people per day, have access to the entire website,
free of a subscription charge. My goal is to provide as much information as possible, across the full range of
topics of my life's research. I don't want to limit people's access based on their finances and have therefore
resisted subscription fees. Instead,  I have tried to support the work through the sales of books, DVD's and
videos, which sadly has not succeeded, leaving the issue of funding still to be resolved. I have decided on a
radical new tack.  

First, many of my regular visitors will observe that there is a change on my blog and website: ie
advertisements. While the popularity of the site is continuing to soar, a very gratifying event, I feel the best
way to give access to all is to use the strength of your visits to my site as an enticement for advertisers.
Please forgive the intrusion and remember; this is instead of charging you directly through subscription! I
have no control over the type of advertising Google sees fit to promote, so please don't be offended.
Eventually, I hope to find independent advertisers relevant to the information on the site.

Second, what I have to offer is unique. For nearly three decades I've been at the forefront of research into
crop circles and have compiled a huge archive consisting of many thousands of original photographs,
videos and hard copy documents. These documents are providing essential background to events
happening today. I am working to find funding for properly archiving my data base and hope to release it
over this site as the information becomes ever more relevant. To aid in this effort I have tagged each article
with the time I spent compiling it, and with a donation request. If you feel the information is valuable, I urge
you to make a donation. No matter how small it seems, everything helps. It is only by supporting each others
efforts that we will stay in touch with truth.

I thank everyone who contributes to this site through information, comments and support. You have made
this an active, exciting exchange that gives energy to people's lives.  

I wanted to explain all this so that when you see advertisements, now placed on my
official blog for the first
time, you will know why.  It is likely that a minimal number of adverts will soon appear on this website also.

Regrettably and hopefully temporarily
my store has been closed. The cost of running and handling the
material can no longer be met. For those who wish to purchase my books, most of them are available at all
good book stores or from Amazon.com or Barnes & Nobles.

                              Why I made a donation to your website

Dear Colin

I would like to start this letter by thanking you for your continued and tireless work in regards to your
research efforts into all things that we would call paranormal.

When we first met back in those early days of crop circle research in the 1980's, I knew that you and
Pat had stumbled (hmmm, maybe even been guided) onto something that would be of profound
significance for mankind.

Some 25 years later and after many up's and down's, I still believe that your work back then and your
continued efforts to seek the truth now, remain of profound significance for the future of mankind.

Your website is without doubt one of the most (if not The most) critical focal point in existence, for
anyone who really seeks the truth. Not just the truth about crop circles and UFO's, but about
everything that affects us all on a daily basis.

The truth about our place in the universe, is in my opinion, being kept from us by those who we put in
power to work FOR US. And what right do they have to do this? Again in my opinion, none
whatsoever. So, unless we keep digging away, we may never live or learn to find out.

That is why I have just made a donation towards your research. It's not a lot, but if everyone of the
20,000 visitors who hit your website on a daily basis were to make similar donations, your website
could continue to deliver the information that I believe all of us that visit your website are looking to
find. I'm just a working class guy on an average income, but for the sacrifice of a takeaway meal,
even I can afford to help make the difference between what would be a monumental failure of
mankind, if your 25+ years of research were to just vanish into the ether of cyber-space, OR finally,
hopefully...... your work is rewarded with what we all seek and what we KNOW in our hearts is out
there.

Colin, you are a proud and honourable man. You seek the truth, you tell the truth. Not once have I
seen you turn from the righteous path, your Kyushindo. In the past you could so easily have taken
the easy path, but instead you continue to push for the truth and that deserves the greatest of
respect from everyone around you.

All the best in your continued work. May those looking down upon this mis-guided
planet reward us all.
