Yeah, i've been wondering. maintaining this site seems like a lot of work, and would require a bit of funding. who are you guys and how do you pay for this site?

As far as who runs it..not too hard to figure out I guess..

As far as paying for it..you DO see the advertisements and such, right? Traffic creates profit. Just a guess..
