Based on Owen's number at 3:48 pm when I received the email and just now at 4:12 pm when it was $340,190 to go, seems like folks are pledging at the rate of about $106,765/hr which means they'll hit $5m in about 3-4 hours! Make it so!

PS I upped my pledge.

                OK, go ahead debate away, you've got till July 4 to
                let us know if it
                will work or not.  Good luck!


            No, actually, we have plenty of time beyond 7/4.  Please
            see https://mayday.us/.


        You meant it goes beyond 7/4?

        My understanding is the *matching* fund is what is important
        .. if mayday gets $5M by 7/4, it gets matched by several
        wealthy folks.

        I didn't see anything on the site about extending beyond 7/4.
         I do know that when you pledge, you get to say "keep it
        anyway" if the goal is not made.  But the matching is where
        the magic is.

        The map at
        https://mayday.us/your-donations/
        shows pledges by zip code.  Mine, 87505, shows 9 pledges for
        $485.  Nine pledges seems sorta puny.

        501, 505, 507 and 508mustered 29 and $1,375...

        my own "team" of 506 and 544 mustered $685 with 12 pledges

        c'mon slackers! double down!  Let's buy our government back!
