The Setting of the Sun

This just in from Peter Gordon:

Tomorrow is the last edition of the New York Sun. I will continue to
publish the puzzles I have in the pipeline, but I'll have to charge for
them, since the Sun will no longer be paying the authors. Once those run out (probably in early March), if I don't have 2,500 subscribers paying a dime a puzzle, then I'll probably stop. So spread the word! As to where the puzzle will be, I don't yet know, but if you go to

or

or

there will an announcement on one of those.

That is very sad news.

Do you think he'll give a recommended donation amount? I would be willing to contribute something.

He's already mentioned an amount. Ten cents per puzzle, which is a bargain for the kind of quality puzzle you get.
