Heh, I deleted my post because I was afraid it sounded pedantic and not useful, but I guess you saw it before I did and it was useful :)

Good luck!

Historically that hasn't been Rogean's style. P99 isn't a non-profit, so they don't have to disclose anything: your money essentially goes into a black box. In fact, Rogean mentioning that the new...
