What is "the 300"? The only thing I can think of is the movie/comic book but I don't see how that ties in to cancer research.

The 300 is this http://www.mfoundation.org/index.php?pagename=mj_donations_t... It's a fund raising scheme by the Methuselah Foundation where everyone pledges to give at least $100/month for the next 25 years.

Not sure why the OP says it turned out to be useless (haven't followed much the Methuselah Foundation lately)
