27.6% of donations go to cover admin. I am not sure how this compares to other charities.

I know nothing about ALS research methods, but I’m on board with the point that an “Ice Bucket Challenge” is pretty frigging stupid.

I did it. Worthy cause, even if silly gimmick. Lost a friend to this thing. ALS is the worst thing you can hear from a doctor. Incurable disease that tortures horribly, disables, degrades, and lowers you, leaving you fully aware of what is happening for years. Merciless, unstoppable, and incurable. I would rather have the worst cancer than ALS. I oppose euthanasia and suicide because of my faith, but if I heard that diagnoses from a doctor, I would have to give my guns to a friend because I would not trust myself with them.

Peyton Manning and a few other Broncos did this. With about 3" of water in the bucket.

Dude, if you're going to do it, do it with a full bucket.

Symbolism over substance.

Some enviro was on facebook yesterday ranting about the wasting of millions of gallons of water!

It was a scream.

Seen a graphic on facebook supporting the “Plastic Bag Challenge to Cure Stupidity” - you can probably imagine, it was a simple challenge: stick a plastic bag over your head and keep it there...I was thinking it would be a GREAT gimmick for raising awareness and would itself cure the world of liberalism! =D

Not every Ice bucket challenge participant is funding the same charity. The Pittsburgh Penguins did this weeks ago to fund research set up by the Celluci family at the University of Massachusetts. Given the publicity it got around here, I hope it's a good one, one the animal rights wackos wouldn't like. UMass ALS Cellucci Fund

On Wednesday Aug. 20, Anderson, a longtime supporter of animal rights, posted a Facebook message criticizing ALS researchers for their research practices...

I always consult Pamela Anderson on matters related to good health and scientific research. / S

After all, she is a human petri dish. : ),
