I have already said I will support the Prometheus Project when it gets closer to being finalized. I am just waiting to see what the maximum contribution I will be able to make. (I hope to come in around $10,000 to $20,000 per year. My problem is that my assets are not liquid - real estate - and I don't know what my cash position will be when the project is ready to be funded). I have visited the labs at 21st Century Medicine and was very impressed with the important work that is going on there RIGHT NOW. I also support what Saul said the other day, that we should spend more time *doing* things to improve our odds, rather than spend a lot of time trying to figuring them out.
