I doubt it. Everybody knows philanthropy exists. The only thing unusual about Buffett is the *size* of his gift. Oh, and the fact that the second-richest man in the world is giving all his money to the richest man in the world. And that Buffett is a good interview and a moderately colorful character. Plenty of news pegs for the story. ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Great things are happening at Yahoo! Groups.
