And yes, donating to RoomToRead is all part of the plan to continue the cycle of future xkcd readers (much like <a href="http://LOLmagnetz.com" rel="nofollow">LOLmagnetz.com</a> profits go toward rescuing dogs&cats so that there are more pet owners to buy more LOLmagnetz - quite sinister, really).

I think we'll run the program again near the holidays and I'll be sure to explicitly state that it's a limited time offer (and for how long).
