[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Bigfoot: [QB] Lockman, I see what you believe to be how Gore is profiting from his success. Let me clarify a few points. All profits from "An Inconvenient Truth" (both the book and the movie) go towards a fund to support environmental education. Also, I have been at his presentation before and he does not ask for donations. I am sure he collects a fee for speaking, most all public speaks do, but I don't think that is any more inappropriate than Donald Trump or Ann Coultier doing so. Some do criticize that he has set up an investment group to invest in environmentally friendly companies and tech. They suggest that by doing his series and then providing a source of financing for these types of group he is profiteering ...I think that is a bit of a stretch though don't you? The City I live in does the same thing with a small business loan program that targets areas where they want to see growth. Anyway, is Al Gore a great guy? No, I've heard he's a bit of a jerk. But I think he's already made his money and now is genuinely more interested in making an impact. BF [/QB][/QUOTE]
