Personal note: I need a little help for my community. Since the State of California is morally and fiscally bankrupt, they have pulled the plug on the treasure of our town, the Bidwell Mansion, a true relic of the California Gold Rush and Western Expansion. A local citizen established group project to help save the Mansion from the state has been setup, and the local newspaper, The Chico Enterprise Record, will donate $1000 towards that fund if they get 3100 “likes” on their Facebook page.
They write:
Thanks, everyone. We are very close to our goal of 3,100 Facebook fans. If we reach it by March 31, we’ll double our $500 donation to the Save Bidwell Mansion fund and make it $1,000. Click “like” on this page up top and please tell your friends.
Since the online readership of WUWT far exceeds my local newspaper, this should be an easy task. If you have a Facebook account, please go here and “like” my local newspaper:

Here’s the status now:
We need 486 “likes”. This should be a cakewalk for the WUWT community.
Thanks for your consideration, Anthony
P.S. On the right sidebar you can also “like” WUWT’s Facebook page, but that’s a secondary consideration.
For WUWT’s 5th birthday, for my own small silent gift, I finally broke down and signed up for Buttbook so I could Like WUWT. Then the counter hovered around 3,025. Now it’s over 4,075.
Today, with this one, my Like count is up to 2. When does the madness end?
BTW Anthony, could you get your crazy nemesis over at Chico State to help out? It’s a nice non-partisan cause, surely he wouldn’t begrudge some assistance just to avoid working with you on something. Or would he?
Done. 3040.
Anthony–
Task Two. . .done!
And I added a note crediting WUWT for the gift.
odd..I was 3040… Dunton, how’d we get the same number?
Done
Why is it that cuts always affect the little guys yet there’s always at least the same number of managers left over?
When Europe wakes up you’ll probably get some more likes, so global are we here.
Less than 25 to go. Having fun watching the numbers roll in (courtesy of the renew button).

Another one done. 18 to go.
@ur momisugly Jeef. Because when you are trying to trim out the dead wood, it’s generally the dead wood which is holding the axe.
A little interlude while we vote…
15 more.
Let’s post on their wall and encourage them to up the ante if we can press it to 5000 by the end of March.
Make that 11!
Because b’crats know that if they get the little guys mad at the evil state or other government, they will be likely to push for settlement or subsidy or whatever.

6 more to go! Keep ’em coming!
It was at 3091
Done!!
3,095
Two, and counting!
Bingo! And we have it!
3099 no joke
3096 Greetings from UK
Now 3,101
So now we should go to their facebook page and make posts to encourage them to up the ante if we can press it further.
Thanks everybody!
