For those looking for good news from the Islamic world, a poll has just come out:
http://pewglobal.org/reports/display.php?PageID=814
To summarize, support for terrorism has been declining dramatically in the Islamic world. For example, last year 70% of Jordanians supported suicide bombings against the US and its allies in Iraq. Now only 49% do. Similar declines in support for terrorism have been recorded in other Islamic countries. Support for Bin Laden has also declined. While the support for terrorism and Bin Laden is still frighteningly high by any sane measure, it does seem to be a start.

I have several telescopes, but none are semi-APO, APO, or in anyway valuable.
