nah, i'll be giving.
and also giving to the peasquat-poor public school here in my newly adopted corner of north georgia. if i can target programs, i'd love to add money for reading, especially literature.
that 'hairshirt' quote from Wired is depressing, though. Strange how a show flies under radar for four plus years, suddenly gets noticed by the digerati, and now has to be evaluated on its political merits by hairshirt-wearing white liberal tech writers (i'm being unduly harsh, having not read the article, but you get the drift).
it's been a really great series of stories that get under your skin and stay with you, like the characters do, as if they were members of your family, reducing the space between human beings, just like litrachure ought. maybe we should be giving to reading programs for Wired editors to remind them?
