Facts You Should Know - The ALS Association

Facts You Should Know:

* ALS is not contagious.

* It is estimated that ALS is responsible for nearly two deaths per hundred thousand population annually.

* Approximately 5,600 people in the U.S. are diagnosed with ALS each year. The incidence of ALS is two per 100,000 people, and it is estimated that as many as 30,000 Americans may have the disease at any given time.


Wow, 30,000 something must be done! Let's get right on this! Priority 1 scramble scramble!

Maybe we have other more pressing priorities? Let's put some tires on the car before we worry about refilling the windshield wiper fluid ya know.

I figured this would be fun thread. Politically, I understand the concerns of the GLTQ folks on Aides. I work with their political arm, and agree they should have come up with a promotion like this, but they didn't. So, in a free enterprise economic system ALS wins. In light of this every charity should reviewing why their marketing people did not come up with this, and I am looking directly at the United Way,Where Does My United Way Money Go and the Salvation Army Financials Salvation Army Annual Report. Too much of their donations goes for the comfortable lives for their executives, rather than the people they are supposed to be helping. I wouldn't give either of them a dime.

And, you thought they were a bare bones garage operation somewhere.
Actually, they should be. Wearing a suit to work. Really?​

Yes, Harry, there is some heavy duty politicking going on here six weeks before a national election. I figured it out after finding one source accidentally. There are some very pissed off people about the success of this thing, and I am going to just sit back and enjoy this mystery until someone in USMB figures it out! Do the words, "Major political coo" ring a bell?

Discover who this man is, and you will get the whole thing.​
