He also donates time, which is just as beneficial as money, if not more more so. He's a great guy and I am waiting patiently to "celebrate" his CD.

I think that would have been a wonderful thing to focus on - Elliot's work for JDF, Ace and Children's Hospital, Clay and UNICEF or Bubel/Aiken, Taylor's charities -- but that wouldn't have allowed TPTB at 19 to look great. To me, the whole idea was to make AI look wonderful. You can donate to any of those charities and not involve AI. JMHO - At any rate, they raised a lot of money. Let's hope it goes to those charities and makes a dent. I still think the work of individuals shines more than the big corporate push - but that's just me.
