Stormy is saying that "Philanthropist" shouldn't be "Rich moneybags who
gives us an annual $1M grant" but "Anyone who gives a little".
That's certainly a valid change to make, but might surprise people -
it's not like there are a lot of people lining up to give Philanthropist
level donations, but you'd at least like people who are considering it
to know that it's an option ;)
That said, I suspect that all personal donations over $10,000 will come
through sollicitations rather than unsollicited donations.
Cheers,
Dave.
