  A few times a week for up to a month I’ll send you an awesome parasite factoid by e-mail. It’ll be the greatest parasite-knowledge-enhancing month of your life (unless you’re a parasitologist). I’ll also thank you on my Twitter account for your donation.

  Is there some parasite that you’d like to learn more about, but want a scientist to do the research for you? Then this is the option for you! For $200 I’ll write a blog post of at least 3,000 characters about a parasite of your choice. I’ll put the post up on my blog at Weinersmith.com, and will mention that the post is being written in your honor.

  Let’s be honest, lots of you are probably here because Zach Weiner, creator of the comic Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal, linked to my video proposal. For $500 Zach will draw you anything you wish. Carl Sagan riding a unicorn you say? You got it! We’ll e-mail you a colored PDF of the artwork, and will send the original artwork drawn by Zach via snail mail.
