An about the 92 HOURS idea page and a list of rules the Michael Demopoulos will adhere to during the lock down. Throughout the entire time he will remain on AOL Instant Messenger and within viewing distance of the web cams at durning the event.

All donations will be accepted. Pledging is easy. The pledger completes a form and then receives a login name and password from 92 HOURS via email so they may join the global Web broadcast.
