  •  Gates was elected to the NAE back in the 90s (none / 1)

    Not as high profile as some other NAE (National Academy of Engineering) CEOs but he gets the issues at hand IMO and for all his robber baron ways, apparently does have a conscience <g>.

      [Gates] apparently does have a conscience

      That remains to be seen.  If I was worth $50 billion, I'd surely have spent at least $49 billion of it to reduce the suffering of the most miserable on our planet.  (And I'm certainly no saint.)  Gates has given away what, less than a billion so far?  We'll see what he does with the rest...
