    Oh gosh I do this everytime, mix up the days and time cause I'm on the other side of the world (and cause I'm foggy). Friend just made a small donation to Keith's research for me.

    Thank you Keith for all your work on our behalf!! And everyone who's donated! :thumbup:

    From David's Project Update e-mail:

    Trial by Error Spring 2021 Project Update    : The campaign has reached the goal!!

    Hi, everyone--Thanks so much for your support this time around--the crowdfunding reached the goal this morning! I am very gratified to be able to focus on work again.

    At this point, I am urging anyone who is still in a mood to donate before the end of April--that is, by Friday night--to think about also supporting Dr Keith Geraghty. Keith is a colleague and friend writing terrific, peer-reviewed analyses of low-quality research from the biopsychosocial ideological brigades. His work has also been essential in the ongoing debunking of PACE and the CBT/GET paradigm. You can see his crowdfunding campaign here:

    Thanks again!--David

    Don't know if KG had any control over the timing of his fund drive, but timing it to offset with Dave Tuller's might give a better result (not that this result is bad).

    Also splitting it up into two rounds a year.
