The excellent Sean Paul sent me a link to BlogPatron, which provides an easy, secure way for contributors to help sustain this (and other) blogs.
Gotta throw some feed into the hamster cages every so often, and feedbags aren't so cheap these days. A little help would take the edge off; none of us were rich to begin with, and we're not getting any richer doing this--though we are, I think, getting (measurably) better at what we do, and having more fun, too.
Maybe you guys need an incentive, besides, that is, our consistent excellentitude. We're giving that some thought.
NOTE You, especially, NSA readers. What are you? Buncha free riders, or what?

Jake

(Note that there's a penalty for withdrawing under $200, so I'd rather not let you know until contributions reach that level.)
No authoritarians were tortured in the writing of this post.
I'm not talking immediately, LB
just - soon. It is very frustrating to send money and not know if it got to the right place, KWIM?
