3. Can someone tell me...
What is the name of the song/video where Michael Jackson is dressed in a gold costume (and dances with perhaps Egyptians) .. and at the end spins and turns into gold dust?

I asked on YouTube too and someone just answered, it's:

Remember the Time

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_n7cftdkl0

p.s. Thank you for your effort :)

p.s.s. While watching the news and going back and watching some of MJ's videos (that I had not seen in decades and some I had never seen before) over the past few days, it seems to me, even though MJ was an original - that Michael Jackson had a sprinkle of Fred Astaire, Elvis, Liberace, James Brown, Smokey Robinson, Diana Ross, Mickey Mouse (the white glove), and Peter Pan all mixed together into him. In my opinion this was not by accident, but something that Michael was talented enough to incorporate into his public persona.

6. The best way to
honor Michael Jackson's memory is to take up the causes that meant the most to him and continue the fight of the world's 'H' issues: Hunger, Homelessness, and Health.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=385x330607

We should ALL do what we can do to combat HUNGER, HOMELESSNESS, and improve HEALTHCARE of all peoples of the world and the HABITAT of animals.

7. Hey thanks! This is important. Another DUer posted that MJ was one of the most
philanthropic people. I can believe it. The man was not lacking in empathy or compassion.

10. Charity
Charity:
Michael has been supporting charity all his life. Best known charities are: The Ronald Mc Donald children foundation, The make a wish foundation, Childright, etc., etc. In 1984 Michael opens his own burning center after he suffers severe burns to his scalp during a commercial shoot for Pepsi. In 1985 Michael writes the song "We are the World" to help the hungry people in Africa. In 1992 Michael starts with the "Heal the World foundation". A foundation that helps the needy children of the world.

"The Guinness Book of World Records 2000 Millennium Edition" includes the following entry: Most Charities Supported By a Pop Star Michael Jackson has supported 39 charitable organizations either with monetary donations through sponsorships of their projects or by participating in their silent auctions. The charities involved include AIDS Project L.A., American Cancer Society, BMI Foundation, Inc., Childhelp USA, United Negro College Fund (UNCF), YMCA - 28th Street/Crenshaw, The Sickle Cell Research Foundation and Volunteers of America.
