Jeff OHey Frank, how about letting everyone decide how to spend and/or donate their own money without referring to them as "tightwads" and "cheap, uncaring folks"? I don't think that the March of Dimes considers me either cheap or uncaring with the donations I've made to them this year, regardless of what decisions I make regarding this opportunity to contribute to another very worthy charity.
Disclaimer - I've got nothing against Rich (who I believe I went to a hockey game with in Seattle about 13-14 years ago), his neice or her charity. Rich is a stand-up guy, his neice obviously has her heart in the right place and the Children's Miracle Network is a great charity. I commend Rich for reaching out - every dollar is important. It just frustrates me to see someone hurling insults at those who choose not to donate.
