156. No, he is concerned that the cause was misrepresented.
And that he by association misrepresented it. And that the money received was based on the knowledge that he had pancreatic cancer. If that fact was used as a basis for promoting the cause, and if that fact turns out not to be a fact, and if the misrepresenting of it in all the places Will mentioned was never corrected by anyone, then this is a bigger thing than just wanting money back. It could very well affect other good causes in the FUTURE if people have the experience of donating to something that turns out to have been exaggerated, which this hopefully will not turn out to be.

That's what I get from this.
