I encourage people to read Barry Bearak's very well-written cover article in today's Sunday Times magazine on famine in Malawi. I understand that the gnostic literary left is more interested in analyzing ad conceited ineffectual infinitum how morally superior it is to the Bush administration... keep channeling those news items, boys... but Bearak's article is an instigation, designed to move people to do something constructive about a famine for which the rich nations bear some responsibility.
