You beat me to this Sir Patrick. But Ill admit it is so temptingly fun to have a bucket of ice water splashed down on me. You know I would love it and spew unprintable prose as it happens. But the thing is, this viral act is not really raising awareness for ALS or the act of compassion. To the overwhelming majority of the younger ones, its all about cool, or cold, in this case, as in going viral with the act. (think Justin Beiber). Lou Gehrigs disorder and muscular atrophy was something that took the late great soccer legend Mochtar Dahari down and its afflicting millions today. I really cant trivialise their pain and sufferings by seeking attention and likes to this act. When you have, you give. In whatever form or manner to those in need- that should be the viral act we promote. Pass it forward. So it is with big regret I cannot ice bucket meself for this. this one, I give it a pass. So Bro Benny Se Teo and sis Elim ChewTwofull, I have to respectfully bow out of this request, paiseh.
