I assume the purpose of a 501(c)3 entity is to avoid taxes. Therefore, my
question about taxes was relevant. I note that you have not really
answered my general question, as to whether you are relying on the 
"Trust in God's Law!" Hardy twins for legal advice. Are you?

I thought I put my $10,000 pledge on hold a few months ago. I regret that
I don't have a lot of confidence in your Project right now, although of
course circumstances may change. My interest in research remains as strong
as ever. The hippocampal brain slice project is really quite exciting, 
but I can't help feeling uneasy about the way your Project is run, so 
long as people such as Hardy&Hardy are playing a significant role.
