Sponsors | I just got $20 from an unknown donor

The gift, which came via snail-mail, didn't include a note. But the return address -- 200 E. Van Buren in Phoenix -- tells me it came from a generous reader at the building housing KPNX-TV and The Arizona Republic. Thanks! (Unfortunately, without knowing your name, I can't send you an official Gannett Blog acknowledgement postcard.)

I'm trying to earn $4,000 quarterly, through donations of $5 per reader, plus advertising sales. Please use the PayPal "Donate" tool in the green rail, upper right. Or mail cash and checks payable to: Jim Hopkins, 584 Castro St. #823, San Francisco, Calif., 94114-2594.
