OK, for starters, I've never been a fan of a procedure that is supposed to work "temporarily". Secondly... sounds like testicular cancer waiting to happen.

I'll let them thoroughly test this one out before I go anywhere near it.
 
I would think his money could be better spent saving lives since there has been male contrceptives available for over 60 years. I'd like to see the stage 3 human trials get underway for DCA, Dichloroacetate saved my life! I was stage 4E lymphoma cancer, it was as bad as it could be and I was given 6 months to live by the oncologists. I started taking DCA and all my side effects went away, the horrible bone pain, the itching skin, the swelling, the tennitis, and the wonderful part was the DCA, after nearly 2 years, cleared my bone marrow up completely. It was previously 50% involved. That is a wonderful finding and since DCA has been shown to CURE certain types of cancer with no Lasting side effects, I would like to see DCA development for cancer patients. The problem is, the trials cost billions, and they depend on the sale of the drug to cover the costs, however, DCA is so cheap, a dollar a day if even, that no one wants to spend the money on the stage 3 trials. It will take some very wealthy individuals to get together to fund this, or we will never see this wonder drug on the market. God Bless.
 
Bill Gates never graduated college, but thinks he can improve education. He has no respect for the thoughfully, prayerfully developed teachings of religion, and wants to change the face of pro-creation. Billy, you want to improve the human condition? Work out some of those Windows bugs. Blast your balls all you want, and shove your Benjamin Franklins where the sun don't shine.
