Why do you insist on being so dense?
Many people, including myself, have explained the difference between funding
and donating to a cause. Yes, *in spirit* Brad Justus and Lego Direct would
seem to "support Lugnet". No, in a *financial sense*, they do NOT "support
Lugnet", which would imply they were paying all expenses.
This seems to be pretty clear to most people.

Have you seen anything that indicates something to the contrary?
Personally, I find the disclaimer to be *very* clear in what it says.
Additionally, I'm confused as to why this continues to be an issue for you.
