    Okay...

    I just donated. Not much, but it's what I can afford right now. If I can do more later, I will. I suggest you keep the PayPal link visible, somewhere at the top of the blog, if possible.

    This is the first time I've ever made a donation like this online. That's because your work is the only stuff I've believed was WORTH supporting, apart from Dan Froomkin's.

    Wish I could apply for that research assistant position, but I imagine it won't pay enough or be secure enough, long-term - and I have a family to support. Besides, I'm probably not qualified anyway.
