How much money would they save, I wonder, if they did not try to make all of the participants in their events feel so “special” with the t-shirts, the headbands, the tote bags, etc.

You make a lot of good points in #113, Bigg Red. I think all the pink stuff is more about promoting the Komen organization itself than actually finding a cure for cancer.

Why not just give to the American Cancer Society rather than giving to Komen (thus funding Planned Parenthood)?

Sorry, but I feel the same way about the American Cancer Society. I often wonder if they are unmotivated to help achieve the goal of obliterating the disease upon which their very existence depends. Lordy, I hate feeling so cynical....
