It's a very good article. George Packer is an old friend of mine (he's pretty far to the left, just so people are aware of his politics). I never met Drew Erdmann, unfortunately - mutual friends of ours tried to set up meetings on two or three occasions, but it never quite worked out. Very much to my regret, I must say. I might as well toss in, as the news has "gone public" at my company - I have volunteered to work for the CPA in Baghdad. I don't have a security clearance, so the process is quite slow, unfortunately, and there's no guarantee that I will be going (tours are for six months, and I _must_ be back in the country by September 1st, so the timing will be difficult to work out), but the possibility does exist. So you guys may be getting some first hand reports on the situation. ===== Gautam Mukunda [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Freedom is not free" http://www.mukunda.blogspot.com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
