Re: Gates trying to build a stairway to Heaven?

I agree, I would love to see more aid to developing countries, particularly where the people being given the aid, are encouraged to determine for themselves what that aid is spent on, not politicians, who have a tendency to be corrupt. Then if they decide they want clean water sources, better food or housing, or vaccinations, the decision would be theirs.

Unfortunately, that is not what happens today, most aid is tied to political, religious, or corporate strings attached. Personally, I think it would be a wonderful world, if people were not so selfish, and simply gave without an agenda attached.


I chose to include the reference to the numbered persons post, because it interested me, in light of very similar comments made in both posts, (although your comments were a lot more polite and civil), nothing more. It wasn't meant to offend, and if my investigation comes to anything, and you are interested, I can email you.

There seems to be a pattern with people making up user names and numbers for the express purpose of attacking others, I have brought this up with the WM before, although nothing has come of this as far as I can see. If you feel this is happening to you, you should probably take it to the webmaster's forum.

Trolls are everywhere, and it seems that this is an accepted part of internet forums. Although I do not count people who simply disagree, or post information that shows a theory or protocol to be wrong or dangerous, as trolls.
