I am still confused about this ice bucket challenge. If I understand it correctly, the people who dumped ice water on their head were faced with a choice. They could either dump a bucket of ice water on their head or DONATE $100 TO ALS. If this is true, then the folks dumping the ice on their head are doing so in order to avoid donating the money. What am I missing here?
