Re: OT: Help support ALS just by watching a music video

Well said, Michael. All drug dealers know that the real money is in the
come-back.

John Ondrasik, the man who is Five for Fighting, is constantly looking
for ways to use his talent to help make the world a better place and
does so without any tendentious or childish political narrative. At
this link, John has cut a video to his song "100 Years" that movingly
addresses the fight against ALS. If you follow the link, good will be
done; Glenn Tullman/Allscripts and Bert and Cyndie Silva are each
donating $1 for every time the video is played. The video, by the
way, is outstanding and moving.
Once again, please click. If you do, $2 goes to the fight against
ALS. And you'll see a video that will really move you.

I don't mean to rain on your parade but I don't think there will ever
be a cure. Call me a cynic but the health care field is so greedy
these days it is not funny. You see every time a disease is cured
that means less profits for doctors and the Pharmaceuticals. They
want people to return to the doctors office for visits along with
physical therapy and pharmaceuticals. Cures would mean financial
loss,less profits for the medical industry. We all know that today the
most important thing is profits.What I would like to know is when was
the last time we have had a cure for anything? My wife has a serious
nerve condition and all the doctors do is treat the symptoms. She
sees doctors,physical therapists on a regular basis and nothing gets
done then I get a bill that would piss off Howard Hughes.They are
making money hand over fist off my wife's illness. If they could cure
my wife tomorrow I don't think they would. The Ferrari payment is due
every month after all. How many times have we heard "give money as we
are so close to a cure"?
