I notice that you didn't mention any rare disease that none of your
friends or relatives have.

Why is it that all of these "altruistic" people seem to never give a
crap until it happens to them?  Did Michael J Fox give one thin dime
to Parkinsons until he had it?  How about Christopher Reeves and
spinal injury/stem cell?

I'd much rather make my money, and donate to non-profit orgs that do
things that I am interested in.

You make some great points -- but I think you jumped the gun on
assuming I am evil.  Friends and people who know me understand that I
am active in many circles, offering help to those in need.  I highly
encourage you to do the same so that we can live in a world where
people are friendlier and healthier.  The world is what we make of it,
and I always disliked the hostility in the security and free software
communities.  Everyone should be nicer to each other and not bash
people when they ask simple questions, even if they haven't read the
manual...
