It’s a bank jog, in Greece. Welcome back drachma, and maybe several other European currencies (even eventually including the franc, given the proposed policies of the new socialist president).
Kickstarter Funding Progress
Things got off to a good start late last week, but donations slowed down over the weekend. I’m a little less than a third of the way, at $2160, with a three and a half weeks to go. That’s plenty of time, but I fear that I’ve already plucked all the low-hanging fruit, so spread the word, please.
I’m flying to DC tomorrow to go to the Global Exploration and International space Development conferences, so I may try to get face time with potential larger donors for matching donations. It also might help if folks would comment over there to entice new donors who come across it.

How they hijacked the Golden State.
OWS
RIP.
Actually, I just say good riddance to odious rubbish.
