If you have enjoyed the pieces and the writing here at "Why I Like Baseball," I am extremely glad. I do it for my love of the game, and my love of writing. I wouldn't, however, turn away any donation that readers might like to give to support my work. It costs me money to keep this site up and running. It's a burden I have no qualms about bearing, but I wouldn't mind sharing that burden with others. If you would like to make a donation, please do so in any amount that you would like, no matter how small. I figure I'm usually willing to pay about a dollar for every great article I retrieve from a newspaper's web archive. Maybe if I were reading a bunch of short pieces I'd give 20 cents for each. Or maybe if I spent a whole evening enjoying a site, I'd pay what I would pay to see a movie or buy a paperback book. It's entirely up to you, though, what you feel would be a fair amount to put into the hat. There are two ways you can donate. One is to write me a check, and mail it to: Cecilia Tan 1770 Mass. Ave. #278 Cambridge, MA 02140 or, you can do it electronically through Pay Pal. Pay Pal allows you to transfer funds, no matter how small, from your credit card number or a bank account, to me (or anyone else in the world with an email address.) It's free, there are no fees, and my boyfriend who is an Internet Security Consultant says it is safe. Just go to the web site www.paypal.com, and click on "Send Money." If you don't have a Pay Pal account, it will walk you through the steps you need to enter the information needed in order to make a payment. Then you can pay whatever amount you want, designating the recipient as "ctan@circlet.com." That's me. Of course, the other way you can support my efforts is just by telling your friends to come and read the stuff. Because that's the real pleasure in writing. My sincere thanks for helping "Why I Like Baseball" to grow, by whichever means. Cecilia Tan Copyright © 2002 Cecilia Tan
