I meant to post this story a couple of weeks ago as I felt it was very heartwarming...it still is... it's about a scottish school girl's school lunch blog and her being responsible for feeding starving children in malawi.

That's actually a very, very good point the long term plan is just as important as the short term plan but until the malawians can achieve energy "dependency" I say "you go girl"

You mean on the quality of the school lunches? I'm not in the position of questioning that.

No biggie, I DID think it was an interesting comment given the circumstances , but everyone has a right to his her opinion and your earlier posts were dead on and undeniable, but until someone with the drive or funds can follow through on your points , it's nice that someone is doing something like this I just hope the money and or food purchased with it doesn't end up stuck in a warehouse because of bureaucracy or a warlord's pockets or most insidious of all some relief organization with an overhead the size of mt. everest
