Feraldo, nothing like public black mail. Gates has given some pretty large chunks of late and I agree with your logic. In the case of United Way, there was a big scandal (pretty sure it was them) a couple of years ago. Let's also report what percent of United Way goes to salaries and how much goes to the recipients. Some charities nearly use it up in staffing. A few years ago Salvation Army was the only major charity reporting 100% "pass through". Gideons also pass through 100% for Bible distribution, but they aren't on any "charity lists". (I are one. LOL) For a real joke, check out Al Gores contributions. Bruce
