how do you know what those are "dissing' really do? Are you NSA/GCHQ and prying on my everyday moves?

Still, any help in treating and preventing Ebola is better than no help in treating and preventing Ebola.

If people keep taking pot shots at those trying to help others, then we will end up with nobody helping anybody else.

There is also at least 1 African song out there to raise funds for anti-Ebola efforts. The one I've heard is a lot better then "Do They Know It's Christmas", which IMHO might have reached the end of it's shelf life.
