Dec-Jan-Feb: What to do?

Well, I am still not decided what to do for Dec-Jan-Feb, 2007 when it is so cold here in Kathmandu. Now, for the past week it has been hot and sunny; what a change from the cold steady rain that came before the hot. None of people that I talk to seem to have much of an opinion on the weather and there is very little in the newspapers. So, ever since I decided to get some education on Global Warming here in Kathmandu, I have been able to do nothing. In addition, the Internet with video sound is almost non-existant here. This is not so good either because the videos are the best way to show something or to talk about an issue and everybody knows that if you video/sound is not working very well, then the security of the system ain't so good either. Nobody is coming to the rescue of Kathmandu either. So, here we sit waiting in all of this ignorance.

It seems like Hillary Clinton is going to be the Democratic choice, which I fully support. Her videos can't ve viewed here in Kathmandu, so I figure it must be pretty bad. Is it so bad that I should consider going to where it is good? How to find where it is good? if it is not good here in Thamel. Does this poor Internet security have any kind of a larger picture? If Al Gore is the Nobel Peace Prize laureate, then it will really be shitty not to be able to get any good internet. All of this remains to be seen. If he is the Laureate, does this mean he cannot be a part of the next Democratic administration? I sure hope he is or he shares it with somebody; this will give a lot of good support to Global Warming/Climate Change. I was talking to friend and we decided that if India, China and the USA do not reduce CO2 emissions in the very near future, we are in for a real rough ride. Three bad boys.

So, these are some of my thoughts for today.
