While I applaude his giving to Fisher house, I have a nagging thought in the back of my
mind that he is prohibited by law from accepting that 1.4M by ethics rules. In other
words, he can only accept an award with monetary value if he gives it away while he is
serving a term as President.

This may be a case of forced charity and if so, it doesn't count.


Little lights of awareness are going on in peoples' eyes all over the
world as you write that, Wes. sigh I wonder if Ig's will.
