ScienceBlogs Charity Liason Janet Stemwedel provides an update of the first two days of the ScienceBlogs fundraiser for DonorsChoose: over $8,000 in direct contributions, with our Corporate Masters at Seed agreeing to match up to $10,000. Not bad for two days, on a weekend no less.
As for the local update, the Uncertain Principles challenge drive stands at $310, of which $100 is my personal contribution (I actually gave them $200, but didn’t get the second $100 contribution recorded as part of my challenge). That’s not bad, but we’re getting our clocks cleaned by the bio nerds– come on, people represent for the physics community…
(Suddenly, reading ScienceBlogs is like sitting through a PBS pledge drive…)
That’s your update/ nag for the day. We’re off to my parents’ to celebrate Fathers Day and my own passing out of the most desirable demographic for advertisers, so no more blogging from me today.
