I didn't see this exchange over here on Gene's side, so I wondered
why.

Over the many years I've been reading this newsgroup. I've not noticed
that very many of its wealthier participants ever mention what they do,
financially or otherwise, to help those who could use a little help.
Perhaps that is because most of those who post here are [bad word having to do with the political 'right' side deleted]
wingnuts.

That's why I ask.

The only person I have heard brag about what they do to help others is
you, and based upon the facts, it just isn't believable. I really
think
if you have to talk about it, you probably aren't doing it. Sort of
like the virgins guys in high school who bragged about how much sex
they
got. The smart guys NEVER talked about. The girls were more likely
to
enjoy themselves if they didn't think they had to worry about the guy
bragging about it.

To be honest, I don't believe any of the stuff you just said.

Reggie makes a good point, doesn't he? Very few people who really
*give* brag about what they give. In fact, I've never heard an honest
person brag about what he gives.
