I told myself I was going to bite my tongue, but man... Tyche, what's your deal? I've always enjoyed reading your posts on the various MU*-related forums I visit, but I think you're a little off-kilter here.
Your little lampooning tirade about needing to give in complete selflessness and altruism demonstrates a distinct ignorance of human psychology - whether it's feeling good individually (i.e. your apparent motivation of choice) or giving your cause or company more exposure as a group (i.e. what's happening here), absolutely no-one "donates" something without some sort of compensation.
Frankly, as far as I'm concerned, you don't really have the right to give these folks a hard time for donating money and resources to this charity because you don't approve of their motivations, whatever they may be. That is, not unless you happen to be a child with cancer and are in a position to benefit from what they've generously decided to part with, and what, by definition, others (including yourself?) have not. Such an excessive degree of misplaced self-righteousness is not at all becoming.
In other words - can it already. Sheesh.
