When I went to graduate school in 1969 at UCLA my nsf fellowship was initially only $200 per month. Not a lot. So my wife and I would go to the Friday midnight showings of Basil Rathbone Sherlock Holmes movies, admission five cents. I guess they made money from popcorn. But we snuck in our own snacks. UCLA soon kicked in money for research and teaching, $10,000 per year tax free, pretty grand back then, so we could go to your movie theater too. Thank you for the warm memories.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
