I just found out that the new UN agency, AIDS-Free World's that my sister in law, Paula Donovan (my wife's sister), co-founded & co-directs with her work partner Steven Lewis, just unanimously passed in a resolution, establishing it as new UN agency for women, giving Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon authority to immediately appoint an Under Secretary-General to lead it.

Are you in the running, Barry. I like the idea of calling you Mr. Under-Secretary. think of the possibilities.

An AIDS free world. In my lifetime, I hope.

That's fantastic, Barry. Please pass on my congratulations. Anyone remember ERA? Kids today don't even know what it is.

A UN Agency for Women.
Is that to hire or buy?
Mebbe Solicitor General would be a more apt title :-)
