I seriously want to look into starting a rival organization for breast cancer and also focused on other women’s cancer. Koman has shown to be a scam, both politicized and top heavy with administration costs. I have not supported them in the past due to the minimal amount actually going to the cause and the PP money.

I have yet to see why an organization fighting breast cancer would support an organization promoting a practice that has been shown to increase the chances of the very disease they are fighting. This is akin to a lung cancer charity funding a cigar smoking group.

I'm not criticizing your efforts and wish you godspeed.

But, I'm not sure that cigar smoking has ever been proven to be a cause of lung cancer.

WOW! I smoke an occasional cigar. What charity is that? I could use a little funding...
