Precisely. And I think a donation counter is not effective. We need a badge system for donators, that applies once the user has set up a monthly donation of 10 dollars as an example.
I also share the frustration that the good dr. from baylor is taking 6 years to complete a study, and I believe it shows that something is not quite right in the university research/ medical research field, however I would not let that discourage me from donating.
