Judging by the website, 10$ would account for at least 90% of their webdesign budget... I mean who claims to be able to edit technology and yet has more broken links and underconstruction pages on their site than working ones.

But just for fun

Alexis de Tocqueville Society - Million Dollar Round Table February 28, 2002 Tocqueville weekend at Palm Beach

Dr. Thomas Frist, Chairman and CEO of Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corp. and Founding National Tocqueville Chair 1984-1989, and Robert Gwyn, National Tocqueville Chair, presided at the Tocqueville weekend this February in Palm Beach. The highlight of the weekend is the induction of new members into 'La Table Ronde des Millions de Dollars'. This elite group (presently 357 strong) consists of Alexis de Tocqueville members who have donated $1,000,000 or more through the United Way. In addition to Dr. Frist and Robert Gwyn, nationally famous members of the Million Dollars Round Table include Bill Gates (Microsoft), Richard DeVos (Amway), Ross Perot (former US presidential candidate), and John Bogle (Vanguard Mutual Funds). Dr. Nelson Ying of Balquhain, Baron of Balquhain was honoured on 28 February 2002 as he was inducted into this elite association of national philanthropic leaders.

Why Bill gates was at their Million dollar round table! Personally he has given more than one million dollars.

Woodman: Wrong guys, that's the United WayNational Alexis de Tocqueville Society. From the Link: The Alexis de Tocqueville Society, initiated in March, 1984, is designed to deepen the understanding, commitment and support of individuals to United Ways and to recognize the deep commitment to service. Membership in the Society is granted to individuals who contribute at least $10,000 annually to the United Way which includes most major United Ways. Thank you to all of these individuals who have made such a difference in their local community! Once again more FUD on this thread that many are blind to. Look I'm disputing the fact that MS has contributed to the group, I just am disputing the Iron Clad Proof that they are an MS bought and paid for shill. Look up some news on them and look at what they do, they are heavily into IP protection since before it became an issue with the software industry I'm sure that they may have some common perspectives. I am not saying that they couldn't be biased, but you shouldn't believe everything you read on Wired or Slashdot any more than FR.
