We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: Beethoven

Fiery-eyed titan, your spirit still burns,
In the beauteous fury you left behind,
Still,ashes spill from your eternal urn,
The stream flows on from your oceanic mind.
Like Prometheus, wrestling with the gods,
You paid a dear price for the fire you stole,
And yet, struck deaf, you still defied the odds,
Nothing ever quelled the fire in your soul.
In majestic sound, was your myth enshrined,
Of the tortured genius, heroic,
Storming heaven, demonic and divine,
Against the waves of fate, so stoic.
This is the legacy you leave us all,
Never did one, cut down, still stand so tall.
