Ooohhh, pouring cold water on your head, not really much of a challenge. You want a challenge, cure cancer or try to eradicate illiteracy. Now there's a challenge. |

You should watch the ice bucket fails, 2:16 is my favourite.

Glad to see those with ALS are getting in on the act themselves. |

From a sociological perspective, it's interesting to watch the behavior of people regarding this.
It has become more about belonging to a group and doing something fashionable than fighting a terrible disease. |

I felt that way at first...kind of the facebook "selfie" thing to do. But a) apparently they are raising a lot of money, and b)so many of my friends and relatives are doing it I don't criticize. |

Its quickly become just a pointless fad. Even my rural middle schoolers have got caught up in it (who's popular? who gets called out?) without any sense of charitable intent. |

Nothing personal, andrewchon, but to be frank, I really don't want to do it. I am not completely ruling it out, but if I am going to accept the challenge(shamed into it), it's not going to be from a Dave's member. Again, nothing personal, and I commend you for doing it yourself. Cheers! |

It's ridiculous on a number of levels.
Besides, most of the money will not go to research. |
