5. Done, meganmonkey

I only wish I could go, as Sam will be there and I'd like to tell him hello. Plus I'd love to talk face to face with Ken Bacon, who is a really neat dude who knows a lot about the international situation and who has a good international outlook on things, and who takes some really great pictures that he shares on the RI site!

4. is there oil in Darfur?

Perhaps we'll get a better response from idiot-in-chief if some geologists prospecting in the area "discover" oil.
