Do you want to read this Chapter?
Well I got Bills to pay!

I spent the last three months building pages for a completely over-hauled version of my new FundRaising Website. I have the URL. I have the Pages. But I need $40 for WebHosting costs (several months in advance) to take it online.

I'm not posting Chapters 8 through 25 on the Server until I have $40 in my PayPal account.

Please PayPal a generous contribution to: tvproducer@angelfire.com

As of July, 27, 2000, I have $7 in my PayPal account.

I need $33 more to go.

BOTTOM LINE: My story is NOT name-calling, double-talk or designed for revenge. My story is FULLY documented with Forum Postings, E-mails, and ODP Editing Notes, taken from both before and after I was kicked out. Good or Bad, this documented information about ODP's problems needs to get out, you want it out, and I got it (over 20 Chapters!), but I got a WebHosting Bill to pay for a FundRaising Website. I have no problem forgetting the whole thing and letting ODP Editors get away with what they're doing.

And besides, finding out what happened to Toto is worth a couple of bucks.

The Lost Chapters:

CHAPTER EIGHT: AGAIN WITH THE FLYING MONKEYS?
The Attacks continue. (Forum Postings 77 to 94)

CHAPTER NINE: LIONS AND TIGERS AND EDITALLS, Oh, My!
An Editall places "Dyke TV" back into PBS just to screw with me, purposely going against the rule of "Duplicate Listings". (Forum Postings 95 to 106)

CHAPTER TEN: DOROTHY PUTS TOTO TO SLEEP.
My desperate plees for help fully documented in the Awards Forum. (Forum Postings 107 to 131)

CHAPTER ELEVEN: WHERE'S THAT DAMN CURTAIN?
Absoluetly NO ONE would tell me where the corporate headquarters were, or who even ran the ODP.

CHAPTER TWELVE: GLYNIS THE GOOD WITCH OR GLYNIS THE BAD WITCH?
Of course, my dealings with Glynis.

CHAPTER THIRTEEN: IF I ONLY HAD A BRAIN (Part One).
CHAPTER FOURTEEN: IF I ONLY HAD A BRAIN (Part Two).
VoiceRoy took up TWO Chapters.

CHAPTER FIFTEEN: THE YELLOW BRICK ROAD TO HELL IS PAVED WITH GOOD INTENTIONS.
My very thorough E-mail to the Staff.

CHAPTER SIXTEEN: WE'RE OFF TO SEE THE WIZARD.
My E-mail to Rick Skrenta.

CHAPTER SEVENTEEN: THE DEN FULL OF COWARDLY LIONS.
I'm fully convinced that most of the other Editors don't know what's going on either.

CHAPTER EIGHTEEN: WHERE'D THAT DAMN DOG GO?

CHAPTER NINETEEN: TOTO'S SUPPORT GROUP.
Toto finds Egroup's XODP Forum.

CHAPTER TWENTY: SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW.

CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE: YOU MEAN THERE ARE OTHER WIZARDS?
Toto finds OTHER Search Engines.

CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO: FROM MUNCHKINS TO DYKES.
I relay my suspicions.

CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE: REMOVING THE WIZARD'S CURTAIN.

CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR: TOTO'S REVENGE.
Actually, it's not revenge. It's more like a "Where are they now?".

CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE: MORAL OF THE STORY.
A breakdown of where I went right and wrong, a few pieces of information about ODP I uncovered that you may not have known, and a Guide for new ODP Editors.
