Bristol- Myers is donating a dollar to AIDS research everytime someone goes to their website and moves the match to the candle and lights it. This is the quickest way to donate and it won't cost you a dime.

(its really easy, a site loads and you click on the candle, I do not want anybody who reads this thread to not do it)

I will give rep to every person who does it.

I've lit one as well, fellas! Thanks for letting us know about this, PowerBookG4. And it's a great gesture on Bristol-Myers' part. *Thumbsup*

It's a great way of raising awareness while providing a wonderfully generous gesture. They could have just given a large sum to an organisation, but that wouldn't have raised many of the issues with the general public. Top stuff.

Thanks for posting that and thanks for adding to all of our reps. I just think it's awesome that so many companies are supporting AIDS research. I don't know anybody with AIDS, but I think it's a good and totally necessary cause.
