Maybe I'm just having a bad day, but the contribution mechanism kind
of annoyed me.

I think few things are more deserving of support than a teacher taking
the initiative to make science exciting and compelling to young
people.?? I nearly contributed, but then ran into some deal-breakers:

While the 'DonorsChoose.org' web site does accept contributions by
PayPal, they require that the donor 'pay-by-check' . . .? The whole
idea of PayPal is to not share unnecessarily your personal info.? I
would accept PayPal as it functions on ebay. . . . payee gets my
email, my address, and the money.

Secondly, once you share your email, there seems no way to 'opt-out'
of being hit up with unrelated requests.

I appreciate it when a person who shares a common interest sends me
info about a worthy cause.? Case in point: I recently contributed to
the project discussed at the URL <
http://projectfreedom.bbnow.org/about.php > , but it was because
another recumbent bike enthusiast referred me to the site.? Shared
interest is the basis of 'community'.

But I don't want some anonymous ''organizing entrepreneur' who accepts
an (OPTIONAL???) donation equal to 17% of a project's costs deciding
what I need to learn about next.? And emailing me a steady stream of
'opportunities' to make 'optional' donations to his personal pocket.
I get way too many unfocused solicitations as it is.

That 17% seems a hefty cut to 'OPTIONALLY' accept for the service of
sharing info, and processing the collection of EFTs.? Just how
optional is optional?? The verbiage alone sets my teeth on edge.

OK, end of off topic rant.

Hope everyone has a nice day!
