The latest project update from @dave30th indicates he plans to continue the project even if the full goal is not reached, though on slightly reduced hours if there is any short fall. However previous rounds have seen a last minute surge in donations, so fingers crossed that it happens again this time.
That is a relief. I was wondering if it was an all-or-nothing arrangement, or could be done pro-rata.
$61,212 raised, 90% of target 19 hours left (much easier to understand!) https://crowdfund.berkeley.edu/project/46120
Oh, thank goodness! And thanks everyone who contributed. And thanks Dave for sticking with us for another year.
Even though the target is reached, I keep going back to check the total. With some forty minutes left whilst I write this it is still nail biting. I echo @Hutan ’s thanks to David. So go that you are determined enough to keep banging your head against the bad science of the mislabelled BPS lobby.
