They have that email as an auto-reply when bitcoin is mentionned for quite a while now I believe.
Maybe - but we can just write BTC or virtual currency or whatever.
The fact is that even with an auto-reply they will know there is a growing push for them to accept BTC, and this will only speed up the process. They clearly have a team dedicated to fundraising and love $$ as much as the next non-profit.
Regardless, a 10 second e-mail does not hurt!

Wikipedia is making another push for donations, so I e-mailed them yesterday telling them that I would love to donate if they accepted bitcoin. Here was the response:

Let's all send a quick e-mail to throw our support behind wikipedia's acceptance of virtual currency. It takes a minute and could go a long way. I plan on responding that I appreciate the consideration and will be making a small donation in the meantime.

What's the e-mail address? I'll tell them I will donate $10 as soon as they accept it in bitcoin.

If everyone just takes a minute to e-mail this could be the biggest media pump yet!
