Earth day - dearth day



Happy Earth day! We are fortunate here in Africa in that we never take electricity for granted - our power has just this minute come back on. This brings Pietermaritzburg up to three power failures in four days! But never fear, the World bank has recently granted our government a fat loan to build a whole lotta belching coal powered Electrical plants. At least we will be distracted by any pesky environmental concerns by being able to plug in our appliances and turn on our lights.
