I'm not sure if I understand what's going on here. It would help if you applied it to this specific idea that I shared in the feedback forum.
You already linked to your post in the feedback threads; you don't need to do it again. You're the one begging for a hearing, and I think you really understand what's going on, here. Give some indication that you really read what I wrote, above. Otherwise, why don't you apply something to something else, like your thumb to your asshole?
You said that I'm asking people to give up their resources such as time. How much time does it take to vote for your favorite skeptics? How much time does it take to make a donation to a forum that you're a member of? You make it sound like I'm making unreasonable demands of people when nothing could be further from the truth.
Are you interested in the truth? If so, then you should be really interested to know how voting compares to spending.
