Donors Choose Update

OK GNXP readers...Donors Choose update. Been quiet about this. First, the good news. ScienceBlogs has raised A LOT of money. And Seed is throwing in matching funds (and possible prizes).

If you feel inclined on giving, give. I'm generally trying to focus on biology & math since I think those are pretty "value added" in terms of how far one's money will go.
