I think a lot of people don't really know Bono's mission and message. They just make assumptions. I think I should direct people to the DATA website. LOL! also, Peace Corps' mission is very different from Bono's so I don't know what this guy is harping about. Sigh!!!! P.S. I hope everyone got the CNN Time Special countdown of sorts to the Person(s) of the Year!

Has anyone read the actual article inside it? I get Time tomorrow but I couldn't wait, there're pieces on both Melinda/Bill and Bono and Bono's really blew me away.

I don't see why Miranda Gates is up there but Ali Hewson isn't?

It would be interesting to see Bono and Ali there as a pair, b/c as much as Ali's "Bono's wife", she does a LOT of things that Bono doesn't have much to do with. However, I think the Person of the Year is kinda chosen from an American perspective, whether that's fair or not, and most of Ali's work besides EDUN isn't known here. Shut Sellafield and the Chernobyl Childrens Project are Irish things.

Just Curious? Does anyone know where the photo/press shots of Bill, Melinda and Bono were taken? They were all over the news tonight, but is Bono at the Gates house in Seattle again? Where does he find the time...

Good point about Ali, thelaj. Time would've had to run the idea of "Person of the Year" by the prospective winners to see if they would accept, get photo shoots, etc. Hopefully, this is what she preferred. In any case, I'm very glad to see Bono and the Gateses
