I don't have any TVs with their over-the-air receivers connected in my house.

I just try to stay away from it because I like to read.
Bill Gates

Bill Gates
I believe that the world will be a safer place if there is enough food to go around, that it will be a more stable place if children grow up with opportunities instead of frustrations. Furthermore, I can only assume that if the United States plays a role in helping to create prosperous societies, we will have friends to call on in times of need.
Bill Gates
