		<description>Maybe I need to take a poll. See what percentage of users would rather get rid of the ads, as opposed to doing something else.

There are site expenses, yes, which are currently in the red. I also would like to (in no particular order) purchase a better recording microphone, offer the writers more money per article, and offer reader/listener/subscriber prizes. I personally would rather do those than have ads, but do realize the ads bring in a little bit of needed income.

It&#039;s a tough Catch-22. If anyone has more suggestions, I&#039;m all ears.

		<description>I sort of like the ads.  Instead of getting rid of them why not use the money for other site related expenses?</description>
