Frankly I must commend this site's owner on not having succumbed to the lure of filthy lucre. I personally don't think I would have been as virtuous.
Thanks for the compliment.
I prefer not to openly discuss how much I've been offered for UNIX.COM over the past 12 years. Yes, it was a very large sum and yes, I did not accept them
It was never my intention to acquire UNIX.COM for the purpose to make a profit or commerical gain. My intent was to provide a non-commercial place in the original spirit of the Internet, like an oasis in the commercial dystopian world (desert society).
