Imagine, Ian, that philanthropy is a big balloon, inflated. Now imagine satire as a needle, wet. Did you know that if you do it right, you can puncture the balloon with that needle, while leaving all the air inside until the needle is withdrawn? Yes! But it is not as easy as it seems. A demonstration is here. Try it! Warning, if it pops you are fired. (Helpful hints here.) Now, go fetch the needle. See what you can do with the lastest issue of The Chronicle.
