Joe, Thank you very much for your last several postings. Your views echo my sentiments entirely. And like you, I concur with the author of the Zimbabwe piece. It's as if he is talking about tiny Gambia. It's not the Yaya Jammehs and the Mugabes who are the problems. It's "us," the ordinary Africans. As long as we continue with the "vulture culture" prevalent on our continent, we'll always be screwed -no matter who is president. Thanks again for these very sober postings. I wish I could say more. Good day! Saul. _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
