They are not getting a pence from me either anymore
Nor from me. Effectively the EFF said "The best way to help us protect your online freedoms is to not use your online freedoms." And they said it without realising the irony.

Use a calculator to multiply the price times the amount. So your 0.08 BTC at $10.50 is equivalent to $0.84.

Near the top left of each forum page is a figure for "total time logged in". I'm reluctant to admit that mine says 21 days. Admittedly that's spread over almost a year. Who has the highest figure?

What changes are there in new clients?
The most important change was a fix of an overflow bug. This bug was "exploited", however the exploit failed after more than 50% of the clients switched to the bug-fixed version (0.3.9?). So you do need to backup your wallet.dat then install a recent copy of bitcoin then copy your backed-up wallet.dat over the freshly-installed empty one.

I would be prepared to make a significant investment into ASIC mining, but not into GPU mining anymore.

This so-called "bust" is an urban legend that almost certainly didn't happen.
Someone wrote an article about a blog post about an IRC chat where someone said something that supported a rumor about the situation where a minehouse could be mistaken for a growhouse.
There's more evidence for the existence of so-called "gods" than for the existence of the raid being discussed here.

Oh yes, they type "bitcoin.com" into Google.
I tried that, and Google replied "Did you mean: bitcom.org?". Tres cool!

What if I like Redhat or CentOS?
Just install OpenSSL from a tarball (from http://www.openssl.org/source/ ) instead of from the repository. You may also have to link the static libraries libssl.a and libcrypto.a into /usr/lib

no more than 21 million will ever exist It wouldn't hurt for Bitcoiners to stop saying this, and to start saying "No more than 21,000,000.00000000000" will ever exist.

I'll be using an untrusted computer without access to my Bitcoin wallet from late tomorrow until 13 June. So unless the donation address is published tomorrow, it will be a couple of weeks before I can send my payment. No need to panic, the coins are reserved.

The buyer will need to send the payment manually. He or she may be away for the weekend and not even checking emails. So it's not possible to say how long it will take.

The VAT registration threshold in the UK is currently £73,000 per year. Most money services are exempt. After all, if you go in to the bank to get change for a £10 note, you would be miffed if they charged you £12 (equal to £10 + VAT) for those coins.
I have no idea how Her Majesty's Revenue & Customs would regard BTC exchange.

The more popular bitcoin becomes, the more popular of a target we will become for the "haters" out there...
Hate is better than obscurity for Bitcoin. If we persistently and calmly correct the haters' errors, eventually they will be the ones looking silly.

The obvious person to ask is jercos, who received the payment from laszlo. I can't recall seeing him on the forum, but he has been on IRC. Even if he has been spending that money, he's highly likely to have some change transactions from it.

Yeah, accept my apologies, that totally came out of nowhere.
He called you "retard"; you're entitled to make a witty riposte.

Please check it, mainly the battery.
Unfortunately, my Thinkpad 701 has suffered with time. When I started it up, it reported a failed CMOS battery (not surprising after 16 years) and a memory error, and took me to the self-test ROM. This showed that everything else (including the hard disk) tested OK. I then booted and got as far as the Windows 95 splash screen before it froze up. I will replace the CMOS battery and fix the memory problem and offer it for sale at BiddingPond, but it won't be for quite a while because I'm tied up with a lot of things right now.

...he is nothing even resembling a working climate scientist.
A working scientist would have known that the raw data has been corrected to correct for weather stations in warm urban locations (for decades now).
