If this is so, why hasn't it been in the news (or news paper) for example? $10.000.000 is quite a bit of dough, well, not for 'ol Billy at least...
Bill Gates often gives a lot of money to charity without it being splashed all over the 6 o'clock news.
A lot of companies donate a lot to charities for tax breaks as I understand it. :(
OR maybe I'm wrong and they are just full of human goodness.
:rolleyes:
i think thats a little unfair, ten million dollars is a hell of a lot of money, i think that was genuine.
