Off topic but very important:-What is the cost involved to run this forum?

There must be a good amount per month for hosting charges,maintanance etc..would like to know the facts and figures on this issue as I don't know who is spending the money silently and taking the burden on his shoulders?
I also req members to ATLEAST clean priv.msgs in msg area(inbox/sent items) in the weekend which will atleast reduce the load on the servers,this I think all must do in weekend.

We actually had a discussion over this at our last Delhi meet. Where someone said that GTO closed this financial topic the last time it was raised.

Well.. its his call on that. But GTO.. a hearty thanx from me for providing T-BHP to all of us. Its really an awesome gift to all the petrol-heads out here.

Cheers
