Not enough time to reply for real right now, but I can say...30 years is a long time and if they had the health of their neighbors in mind they could have raised funds in that timespan. But alas, big business is big business and many of them do not think along those lines. Same with the higher salaried population...did you see the story in the TU? Apparently the people who make $50,000 to $100,000 donate to charity a heck of a lot more than those who make more than $10 million! What do you DO with $10 million? If I write my book and make anywhere NEAR $1 million even, I have my charities mapped out already and I want to set up a number of story contests for youths complete with cash prizes. Maybe that's because I've lived at the other end of the spectrum...or rather AM living at it! Though I can't imagine every millionaire is an Olsen twin who jsut happened to grow up in money. So many of them should know the rigors of low-moderate income. Then again, many of them might just think that acting in that movie entitles them to $10 million, they did all that hard work and so they shouldn't have to share the wealth. But where would they be without the viewers?

ALl right, I could spout about that all day, so I'll stop there. And yeah, duh me I see where you mentioned the locations in your first response to my thread. Thanks.
