The people I reckon who're the real givers are not the multi-millionaire celebs who donate concert proceeds (generated in the main from much poorer people anyway) but the ordinary folk who turned up at the scene, gave some some of what little they have and got their hands dirty. They're the ones who deserve the real plaudits not uber rich Sir Saint Holier Than Though and the like who could well afford to do a whole lot more than they do and still have more money than they know what to do with.
