However, to view media as a passive mirror is to ignore its more active, persuasive power. Popular media does not just report on reality; it constructs it.

Donations

This software is supplied in a binary format ('as is') for free - the source code is not available.

There are many expenses I incur in maintaining the WinGeno project that may not be apparent, such as web hosting costs, and the costs of new operating systems and software I have purchased specifically for writing and testing WinGeno. If you desire, you may send me donations of any amount towards my efforts on keeping the WinGeno project alive.

Although donations received are very much appreciated, those that do make donations do not automatically receive preferential treatment over those that don't.
