[GreenKeys] list funding concerns

[gil smith]

Hi folks:

I sent a message last week about the funding needed to keep qth.net lists
active.  Well, John had a great idea: he has offered to donate a quantity
of genuine Teletype Tape Moisteners to be given away to people who make a
nice donation to qth.net.  

Such a deal -- help qth and get a nice collectible!  These devices were
used to wet the gummed tape that was used in tape printers, for telegram
and similar uses.  The finger piece is the cutter for cutting the tape at
the edge of the page.  See some pics at:

Act now, as quantities are limited!
