Platelets

Most of what I do isn't particularly socially useful, but I do have a long track record of donating blood. So far I've donated eight+ gallons of whole blood, and I have no intention of stopping any time soon

Interestingly, the Bloodmobile they send out from Stanford has a place on the sign-in chart that indicates people do show up to donate platelets there, by appointment.

Not an option here, which isn't too surprising given how few people do it and how much extra work it takes.
