"It is a sign of true love between Bill and Melinda."
Matching shirts and pants? That's usually a pretty good indicator, at least around Disneyland (where presumably couples do this to avoid getting lost).
I can't be sure, since I only took one college economics course, but to my layman's eyesight, it looks like the Billster didn't spring for a rock for the engagement ring.
What?! That Melinda isn't kissing the TB patient? That Bill isn't kissing the person taking the picture? That Melinda isn't grabbing that pot and bashing Bill in the head with it?! TELL US MAN!!! Certainly it's not the wedding ring.
Is it the large chunk of compressed coal/dead dinosaurs on her finger that Bill likely enriched a descendant of the old, revanchist imperialist era by purchasing?
A small wedding ring. No gaudy, huge ass rock, a simple wedding ring. Oddly enough she actually likes him for who he is and didn't demand a rock "the size of Texas." If there were only more Melinda Gates in the world.
Maybe that is the ring she wears when she is around common people. It might be interesting to see what she's wearing when she's hanging out with high society people.
Perhaps the benefits of signaling that a gaudy ring would usually produce is diminished by the fact that she has the last name "Gates" and that outweighs the effects any signaling from a big ring could produce.
Or maybe she left the big-ass diamond version at home BECAUSE SHE'S IN FRICKIN' AFRICA AND DOESN'T WANT HER HAND CHOPPED OFF BY A MACHETE WIELDING JEWEL THIEF.

Is it the fact that he is a TB patient and Melinda is practically breathing in every word he says?
Fancy wheel chair?
Owww not one of these again - can't you just tell me? :)
I will give you a hint;
It is a sign of true love between Bill and Melinda.
Her crappy ring?
They're dressed the alike...
Giant diamond ring? I give up.
Could it be because Melinda's ring is not the size of Texas?
Married to the richest man in the world, and she wears a simple wedding band.
Classy lady.

Shouldn't his eyes be falling out and hair growing on his hands? WHY IT ISN'T SO?
There is just a wedding ring. There is no fancy diamond.
well, they are well dressed and highly color-coordinated black on top, beige on the bottom with white shirt/blouse.
They're so cute - just like a pair of Wintel clones. ;-)

It would seem, Dear Captain, that Mr. Gates seems to be sporting a woody.
Their outfits match?
Their clothes are color coordiated
Is it the fact that they match, khaki bottom and black top? Or are you referring to the rock on her finger?

Mrs. dressed down to match her geeky Mr. ??..
She is not afraid to wear a wedding ring?
For the richest man in the world he looks like a commoner doesn’t he?
Is it the large chunk of compressed coal/dead dinosaurs on her finger that Bill likely enriched a descendant of the old, revanchist imperialist era by purchasing?
Matching outfits?
Matchy matchy (the twinkie effect)

Bill has Melinda's hands and vice versa
My bet is that she has a big rock ring at home for other occasions. A medical charity safari to Africa is not the place to be fancy.
Chemist,
A more eagle eye observation than what I had.
Holding hands.
Imagine that. Love, who would have known?
You win.

Cap'n, did you read a lot of "Where's Waldo?" when you were a kid?

Sorry.
