Nothing to do with photography, but an interesting story:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/7777560.stm

I spent a couple of weeks in this town once, mainly trying to rescue my
breakfast from Colobus monkeys. It's a very pleasant little spot on the
earth.

To me this story shows up the difference between the over-engineered
thinking of westerners who, with the best will in the world, come up with
grandiose but useless schemes like giant dams and one-laptop-per-child which
get bogged down in politics and vested interests, and the simple but
effective schemes of local people who know what's what.
