| #6 ....I can't wait until the G7 meet in Savannah - about 2 hours south of me - in a couple months. For all its 'liberal' reputation, that town brooks no crap from ANYBODY. The city fathers have already passed an ordnance that says you have to put down a deposit to protest, and the protesters are having conniptions. The cops have already said that if you demonstrate without a permit, you go to jail. Should be fun... Mike |

| #5 Would someone please explain to me why, in an age of instant and secure communications, the IMF/World bank has to hold these meetings? (Besides the smiley face photo opps and the host city getting trashed, I mean.) |

| #4 Give them part of what they want. Put a total stop to all new loans. A big freeze. Then sit back and see how they squeal. |

| #1 I hope they have the giant puppets - nothing says "we want a serious policy discussion" like giant puppets |
