Wow. 16000 a month? Does that mean "downloads"? When I started it in 2005, the DDC and I were thrilled that we got 1,500 downloads the first year. It almost doubled every year until I got burned out in 2010, when I think we got 15,000 downloads for the year. So, if you are getting 190,000 a year now, that means that the experiment was a great success and you have helped in making JDD a continuing success for all those around the world who realize that Delib Dem and Direct Dem are the ONLY way we can save humanity on this planet. Your "Diget" was also part of the original JPD, bu we had it as news, with graphics. The DDC didn't like it much and didn't support it. But I kept at it anyway. So, I'm glad you've reinstituted it as part of the journal. I hope you actually do get a new team of editors to continue the work,because you know as well as I how badly this approach to a new and better political system is the ONLY way we survive as a species on this planet. Best of luck in your search. I'll keep my eyes peeled to see if you succeed. I sure hope so. I'm glad you are doing thiis for another year. If there is any way I can help, let me know. Ted Becker.
