I just wrote a check for $13,200.

As I write, this comment has earned only 5 karma points (one of them mine). According to Larks' exchange rate of $32 dollars to one karma point, this donation has more than four hundred upvotes to go.

Wait ... I assume you're planning to actually mail the check too?

Yes, I mailed the check, too, just after writing the comment. (And I wrote and mailed it to SIAI. No tricks, it really is a donation.)

I would be surprised if karma scaled linearly with dollars over that range.
