No, we get no renumeration whatsoever. If you are in a position to send money, candy, canned foods, post 1920 clothing, aspirin, ocean going cruiser/yacht complete with heli-pad and jet-turbine helicopter, writing materials, etc. we will be eternally grateful.

I can't understand what exactly you said. But I think, you said, (If I am in a position to send money, ...................., you will receive it)

I am sure.

But, not now,  after 2 years because now I am a student. After two years, I will be working and I will be in a position to send you (all moderators/administrators) anything  you want. May be money, ......... etc.)

Trust me.

Actually, you are like `God' to me because you are helping me in my English which is a foundation for my future and, it will help me in building  good career.

Hi Gary.

There is no need to send anything, really. I was joking. Our reward is knowing that we are helping people, and that we are all having fun!

Yeah? You mean I can afford to drink REAL beer (not haposhu which is a hop free alcoholic drink that causes headaches)? Can I also afford more than two pairs of shoes? A new hole in the road to sleep in? WooHoo!

Hi Golden,

I think that helping people is its own reward, but there's no way you could call that a salary.

No money, no. But we do each get a Christmas hamper, full of adverbs, prepositions, gerunds, and comma splices.

(Though I'm sorry to say there was a dangling modifier in mine, last year. Office Services please note.)
