I'd rather donate, which I did even though I wasn't nominated. Not much but I 
believe every little bit counts.

ummm, for the record, I wasn't challenged by any human!  I felt led by Someone 
greater than any human to do it.  My friend was going to challenge me, but his 
girlfriend talked him out of it(''she doesn't like to be cold, she doesn't like 
ice'', blah, blah, blah) .  Altho I was upset at 1st, I realized it was ok b/c  
I came up with my own plan.  I did it!  It's for a great cause, even for the 
awareness!  AND, it was FUN!!  One of the many reasons I decided to do it was 
b/c my van's previous owner died b/c of ALS......ALS SUCKS!!!!!!

 I feel the same way as you bobbie and Ron, some of my kids and their friends 
did the ice-bucket thing but I sure won't besides it is for ALS and I have 
other choice charities and causes we give too and support such as 
Diabetes-Cancer-Quad related or transverse M--can never spell that correctly

 people who do you do this to donate to local chapters instead of the national.

Being in Phoenix I'd do it, not so sure if I was in Seattle, maybe on a sunny 
day.
I'd recline first, so my chair did not get wet. I got it wet once and it blow 
up some electronics.
Do it... If your chair does not recline, maybe have someone tip you chair back 
and hold it.
