Paying Salam Pax

Lots of people have noted the return of Salam Pax. The Guardian today devoted two pages of their tabloid section to publishing a lengthy extract. Salam did mention at one point that he had found an internet cafe that was open, but he might not be able to afford to use it for posting much. Hopefully the Guardian will send Salam the cheque that he is clearly entitled to for providing them with two pages of copy, and this will solve the problem. (I have no reason to question the Guardian's good intentions here. I am sure they are perfectly happy to pay him the going rate if they can find him. Somebody needs to ensure this happens, though).
