A COUNTRY OF PRUDES.

 When it comes to sex, Americans are the most ignorant, backward, moralistic, judgemental people in the world. I am furious that the press and others are attacking Bill Gates for some meaningless affair or past indiscretion. This a man who has spent billions of his dollars to fight diseases throughout the world; a major donor to campaigns against hunger and sickness; a devoted philanthropist who has proven a constant warrior agains hunger and death. And all the prissy press can talk about is a meaningless affair in a amazingly significant life. Bill Gates and his wife should be honored for their unquestionably beyond generous contributions they have made to humanity. Instead he is being vilified for a what the sick and vindictive press calls "questionable behavior."
