Just a reminder to you all that my Donors Choose campaign is still going strong. Yesterday I issued a challenge to health care workers to toss a couple of bucks to needy classrooms. If we're lucky, some of these kids will be our colleagues some day. So far, in response to my challenge the kids have received exactly bubkes (that means "nothing").

I know I'm starting to get annoying here, but my state is hemorrhaging jobs, people, and hope, and folks around here would like to know that they haven't been forgotten.
