Something About A Pat On The Back

I hummed and hahhed about making this post for some time. Most of you will say "Mike, you complain about everything!" I'm sorry, but if your going to make a large contribution like this, wouldn't you do it anonymously? Nothing like saying "Hey world! Look at us! We're rich! We are good people because we gave 5 million dollars to charity!" Maybe it's just me, but If I made that kind of contribution I wouldn't want my name to be known to anyone.
