Help Preserve the Bird.

That is, help preserve Burningbird's weblog. While I temporarily join the workforce to give me a few bucks above my pension, Shelley Powers is struggling to find money enough to pay to keep her web presence fired up. Jonathan Delacour launches a campaign to keep the bird burning. There are lots of us who agree is with Jonathan:

To that end, he says, I’ve set up a PayPal donation account called Keep the Bird Burning and I’m now officially soliciting donations. Clicking on the button below will take you to a PayPal Payment Details page displaying the details of the donation you are (hopefully) about to make. If you don’t have a PayPal account, you can quickly and easily set one up.
