after seeing this topic pop up a few times and now having done some additional reading, the idea of this being in effect a charitable donation has appeal--so, does anyone know which or if any sellers actually support improvement/upkeep of these lands rather than sellers who just pocket the money?

fun + charity = worthwhile to me.

fun - rip off = complete waste of money.

or should i go back to my original idea of buying a bit of Laphroaig (which also pops up whenever i buy a bottle) --that is an institution i know i believe in!
