Today, October 11th, is Gridcoin Research's Fourth Birthday. Our Genesis block was staked on Saturday, October 11, 2014 1:22:57 PM GMT. For more information about the birthday festivities, see 
October 11th also happens to be my own birthday, so in celebration of both Gridcoin and myself getting a year older, I distributed 2500 GRC through project rain to three projects near and dear to me. DHEP, World Community Grid, and Yoyo. You can see the rain transactions in this block. If you received some GRC, thanks for crunching!
Here's to many more years for Gridcoin. <3
