I followed BajaGringo's instructions and it worked fine. (thanks, BG)

The website is a little slow. Sometimes I clicked on the corazon button and it would go to a blank screen, I was not sure it was working, but when I went back a little while later and logged in again, all my hearts had gone to the abalone.

Have patience with the website, I imagine they are getting some pretty heavy traffic right now. Especially now that the Baja forums are on board! LOL!

Just checked and we hit 350. You guys ROCK!!!

Thanks for all the very nice messages/emails/comments you have sent and or posted. They are all very appreciated and have been passed on to Reyes. He is very impressed with you guys...

By the way - I forgot to mention:

There will be volunteer oportunities in this project and we are already talking to a couple of different eco-oriented groups that want to work with us to clean up the island and protect the natural habitat. More opportunities will become available over time and if you are serious about wanting to get involved please contact me via u2u and I will get you in the loop...

After another peak I see we are over 400 now - I am literally speechless. You guys must all have lots of email addresses or sending this out to family and friends. Whatever it is you all did...

I have heard of a couple having that problem. Do you have a different email address you could use?

hotmail, yahoo, gmail, etc

Even if you can't I really do appreciate you're trying...
