Which is really too bad, because whatever *else* he is and has done, Blair's the "point man" at this summit for global warming and aid for Africa. Just a comment, however, about "huge." While I loathe the people who would do such a thing as much as anyone else here, it's good to keep some perspective. Forty people killed by terrorist bombs strikes Westerners as shocking, but the *average* number of civilians killed by such terrorists in Iraq during the last 18 months is 20 per day. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp- dyn/content/article/2005/06/02/AR2005060201098.html It's only "huge" because it happened to us for a change.
