I can just image the look on the researcher's faces when they found out they would receive that much money. "No Charles, we can NOT afford another of those machines, they cost almost 500 grand and we are already 200 grand in debt. Oh, look, another donation...." | ||

But then again, I didn't make 10 billion $ so what the hell do I know. Thanks Bill nonetheless : ) You have no idea how much the Gates Foundation donates out to charity. Bill and Melinda gates are known for being very generous philanthropists. | ||
