C6M: Jon referred to the fight against AIDS and poverty in Africa as, "a war that can be won." To me, that's a pretty bold statement because it seems pretty futile.

Drew: Wow. That's a really good question. There's a lot that needs to be done on a political level, but, you know, hope doesn't come from money, and joy doesn't come from money. It takes someone taking an interest in them and caring for these people. I just hope we can do a little to help people take notice and do something.
