Thanks, Susan. I do have a tendency, probably shared with others here, to post "Hey, look what I've found" as quickly as I can.

Having worked in the Peace Corps in Ethiopia for 3 yars, I'm well aware that this story and related stories from other parts of the world need as much attention as they can get, but we also need to be sceptical of reports we find in the media until there is at least some "independent" verification.

Of course, I do remember a while back that alarming "news story" about the Japanese trawler sunk by a cow that fell from the sky...
