Charity

I can’t believe I haven’t asked this before, but I haven’t: do you contribute to any charity?

I can’t say that I do at the moment. For a time last year, my wife and I contributed to Chicago Public Radio – which isn’t a charity per se, but is the closest I’ve been to one in some time. I still think of a charity as something greater though. I’ve been giving serious consideration to donating to the EFF and ACLU. With the ACLU in particular, I’m reminded of a great scene in The American President saying that everyone should be a member of the ACLU. I’m starting to believe it.
