In ‘Point Form’ today; been keeping busy.
*Dai Krahom transition Update:

Considering that many of the evicted were artists, it calls to mind the opera La Boheme and the more recent Rent. Maybe the residents don’t need news stories to raise awareness; perhaps a rock opera would be less controversial?

*Discovered a few old zine friends who now have moved to blogs. What is a zine? Back before the internet, there was the papernet.

*and With oil, who needs aid? Africans to Bono: “For God’s sake please stop!” Nicholas Kristof takes a break from his flawed analysis of Cambodia’s sex trade to make a handful of cogent points about the need to ‘make aid smarter‘.
*Tonle Sap: dialysis needed?
