      <<<4) Any other interesting discussion related to Africa. For
	   example, the donation made be various people and
	   organizations to the Ethiopia people has been fantastic.
	   But it there any lesson we learned from this situation?
	   The drought did not hit them overnight. Could we have
	   prevent the situation by having close relationship with
	   each other? Are the Western countries going to forget
	   them once the situation improves? How can we improve
<<<the relationship between Africa and the Western world?

           Yes Wale, the United Nations for years warned Ethiopia about cutting
 down trees, and the inevitable famine; but the marxist regime there paid no
 attention and now they have it. I, personally cannot see sending them aid.
 I think we should let nature run it's course.
