If CFAR becomes a success and Finland starts to develop its own branch, I'll probably donate some money, but working there myself would be like buying fuzzies in a soup kitchen with my inferior cooking skills. Some other kinds of relevant local movements might also get my vocal and monetary support in the future.

At this point marketing our brand of rationality to anyone I don't know seems like a risky bet. They might get exposed to the wrong kinds of material the wrong time and that wouldn't mean anything good to my reputation.
