What Nicholas Negroponte and his team have achieved is admirable. It doesn't matter if the effort may be tainted by corruption in some receiving countries, it's always been so.

Thank you Bono, Bill Gates, Angelina Jolie and all the rest that do such a valuable job where it matters the most: putting the pressure on the wealthy by showing these realities, so ealisly ignored. That's the most effective work that can be done to change the world. What you do is priceless. In the name of all of us, thanks to everyone involved in making the lives of others better in any way.
