I think many of us agree.  So why aren't we paying?  In my case, I just keep
meaning to.  I bet there's a lot of that.

However some of our members are still teenagers and they might not be able
to afford the extra $$$ , and to lose them as members because of money would
be sad..

It would.  But $25 per year is something that _any_ North American teen who is
well off enough to enjoy LEGO and computer use can afford.  It just is.  I was
sixteen sixteen years ago.  I could have afforded it then with ease in 1985
dollars.

Another thing that just popped into my head was Fund-Raising Auctions for
LUGNET.
If we could get donations of LEGO sets or pieces we could either auction the
sets off or part them out and auction the parts off. All funds raised could
be donated to LUGNET to help with administration etc.
I would be happy to donate LEGO and/or help run the auctions etc.

What do you think??

Sure.  It could even use the AucZilla engine if they were participating.  I
suspect that for it to be really helpful, someone else would have to act as the
clearing house.
