• What was more offensive - getting a box of "presidential M&Ms" from GW Bush as a souvenir on your flight to Africa on Air Force One or a signed photo from Benedict XVI as a "no thanks" response to your Live 8 invitation? And regarding the photo - did you do a "Sinead O'Connor" after receiving it or will you put it up for charity auction one day?

• My ? is this; when we were seeing all of those videos of the people living in the Kalahari(?) why did no one but me snap to the fact that if they had all of this sun why not put solar panels in there and make electricity like that and improve( if they want it) their lives and maybe some one else too? To me it was a "Duh?" question. Use natural resources.

  But of course, you're busy sorting out the world's poor. That's got to take it's toll...

  Thus: Geldof 1 - 0 Spade. Of course I'm being generous. At least Spade can still work...
