Nice one Jerry - it makes perfect sense to me. As a newbie, who actually came here because of you, I followed your example in upvoting myself because I knew no different and because I'm lucky if will I total $1 per post anyway! But, there's something about it that I thought didn't feel quite right. If Intake away my 5 cents per post and give it to someone else, does that make a great difference to me? Not really, but I do admit that even a $0.3 upvote gets my attention these days. Onwards and upwards - ethically :)
