1. How tragic.

What a brave man to cover such dangerous stories. We need more people like that in the world.

2. Burma is full of such people, according to CNN

taking photos out of their windows and sending them out by companies and embassies that have satellite internet connections. If anyone in the present government puts 2 and 2 together and realizes what window was used to take the pictures, everyone inside will be imprisoned or worse--shot.

I am amazed by the bravery of these people.

I am also amazed by the stupidity of the government in rounding up all the monks and taking them to places unknown.

3. No. Americans would rather see Rick Sanchez demonstrate the advantages of being tasered....

eom...

4. That is why I have to get most of my news from the internet/PBS/BBC

It amazes me how many news shows have ended up being like watching Entertainment Tonight.
