thanks and happy merry

I’ve added a “donation” widget in the sidebar, but I’d like to request of writers and regular commenters that you not avail yourselves of the opportunity to fork over moolah, just in case you feel tempted. You know who you are: Your unpaid-for eruptions are much more valuable to this blog and to me personally than any moneys you are likely or unlikely to send my way.*

Thanks for being there and here this year or whenever.
