(b) On 7/21/2020, the server hardware was upgraded.  Monthly costs were reduced to $74.95 (from the previous $99.95), and the wiki is running faster.  '''Monthly costs are now ~$78.00 (~$75 after deducting PayPal's fee).''' There was, however, some overlap with the previous fee, as well as expenses generated by moving to a new system within the Server, so the total expenses for August 2020 were higher. Beginning with September, the monthly fee stabilized at $74.95. Because of our renegotiated contract with the server, there was an overlap in payments in the month of August, which resulted in no payments being made for the month of September. We also moved to a cheaper New Jersey-based bank account around September 2020.
In Southern California, the cost of seeing a movie at the cinema is $15. Please '''[[CZ:Donate|make your donations here]]'''.
