I've missed something.  Why do you think the Alligator Patrol didn't
get paid?  Why else would they participate?  They may have been
off-the-books somehow, but they were paid *something*.  This happens
today: there are places up near Greenwich CT where undocumented
immigrants congregate each morning and are picked up illegally as
day-laborers on a cash basis to do the lousy jobs none of "us" wants to
do.  They are "volunteers".  They get paid.  They remain crushingly
poor, invisible, and human.
