Having said all that, if you still really \e{want} to give us money,
we won't argue :-) The easiest way for us to accept donations is if
you send money to \cw{<anakin@pobox.com>} using PayPal
-(\W{http://www.paypal.com/}\cw{www.paypal.com}). Alternatively, if
-you don't trust PayPal, you could donate through e-gold
-(\W{http://www.e-gold.com}\cw{www.e-gold.com}): deposit your
-donation in account number 174769, then send us e-mail to let us
-know you've done so (otherwise we might not notice for months!).
+(\W{http://www.paypal.com/}\cw{www.paypal.com}). If you don't like
+PayPal, talk to us; we can probably arrange some alternative means.
Small donations (tens of dollars or tens of euros) will probably be
spent on beer or curry, which helps motivate our volunteer team to
