I agree entirely. IMHO, Sergey should be given every MSFT Product for free for the rest of his life as well as complimentary memberships to every VFP forum and magazine.
As to the other UT contributors, I could list those that have helped me out of scrapes when time was an issue and there are a few. I would love to see them receive a complimentary membership for a year - in my opinion it is well deserved, it may entice them to spend more time on the UT and as you say, the higher the expert level of membership on the UT, the greater the draw for new PAYING members as well.
