This post actually has me seriously considering how long it'd take me to save an extra $3000 and whether it'd be worth it. It going to MIRI would help a lot. (I guess you might be reluctant to play since you know me for a bit, but $3000!)

As a relative outsider who thought much the same thing I'd definitely want the money to go to Tuxedage - it sounds like he suffers doing this, something I'd feel much more guilty about if I wasn't paying him.

If all goes well, the money that goes into MIRI will end up creating large large numbers of beings very similar to Tuxedage. May also be Tuxedage's best shot at personal immortality.

If I thought that worked I would already have given MIRI all my money.
