#1 So, um, what's the Sympathy Quotient on this one?

I think we're gonna need to pull out the digital job - to display the negative values which would damage the analog model when the needle wraps around the peg.

But that's just me.

#3 I think its ok to leave them be --- just with the piracy thing... the ports should really be destroyed. Also, all boats and planes. Let them go to pure sticks and stones.

#4 Simple enough. The solution is what was required on the first go around. KILL THE WARLORDS. These evil slimebags have no problem starving their own people, diverting foreign aid and promoting mayhem in general. Airdrop pallets of poisoned food, let the warlords feed themselves and their troops, presto! No more warlords. We really need to stop prinking about with these evil maggots. Sure and swift death needs to be the reward of those who promote this sort of havoc. No amount of mediation or assistance will change anything. Death will.
