It is sad and deplorable that a man so capable of upholding the commandment, "You shall pay for any loss you caused anyone to suffer" (1 of the 365 positive DIVINE COMMANDMENTS) of the Taryag Mitvoth, instead uses his wealth to fund an encyclopedia. La Oroya, Peru continues to be one of the most contaminated places on earth and Ira Rennert knows what he must do in order to make things write with the G-d and the people of La Oroya. Funding an encyclopedia on commandments wasn't it. Neither was buying the expensive duplexes for his daughters on Park Avenue.
