I thought I did respond adequately in the other thread.
I hadn't logged onto XPT in a few days because I was busy in Miami, and now I'm in Washington DC.

If you look at the donate page on the site, I haven't even put up a Paypal button yet. John didn't really want the fund. He doesn't want to ask ANYONE to donate to something that he takes full responsibility for. He's always saved a large portion of his money, and has always known that Evil Angel was never immune from the possibility of prosecution.

With the sheer number of phone calls and emails we were receiving, a decision had to be made to decide whether to tell people who were saying they really wanted to help, "Thanks, but no thanks" or to use the concept of the fund to turn this into something much bigger than just the idea of money.

DefendOurPorn can be a concept beyond just one case. It's a way to get people talking about First Amendment ideas on a much bigger scheme.

John told me that he's not planning on taking any money out of the fund for quite some time. He feels uncomfortable with the idea of other people contributing money, and before any further decisions are made, he wants to have some time to evaluate better how he feels about the situation.

I saw on Gene's site that there is a defense fund for Harb / Movies by Mail. Darth - can you be helpful and find that address for me? If not, I'll find it tomorrow when I get back to LA.

At one point, I had also heard that Extreme had a fund.
