As at 4 pm today, donations for the Pakistan earthquake appeal totalled $695, which I will match for a total of $1390. I’m hoping we can raise this to $1000 + a matching $1000 from me, so I’m going to keep running the appeal until Sunday. Thanks to everyone who’s donated, and specially to those for even a small subtraction from the weekly budget is a big effort. Please add your promises to the earthquake appeal comment thread, not this one.

But then again, you are the economist.
