pondering a thought - local tv programming is free but one has to sit through annoying "commercials" for this free service. Should one "pay" for local tv programming to avoid the "commercials", or accept them for face value. There are good and bad sides to this issue for each individual. -or- walking into a retail store is free. Even if nothing is purchased. There are sometimes annoying "muzac" commercials over the intercom systems there. Should one "pay" the store to enter it, so at not to hear the "muzac" and still not buy anything, but just browse around? just a though or two... TMG p.s. i say keep this site free. all the hard work the modelers and artists put here for free helps stimulate my own creative thoughts and ideas.
