Happy 2005
I don't know your opinion about the year that is about to finish, but I find I has been a bad year. I hope 2005 doesn't bring us any of these:
- Earthquakes like those in Iran and South east Asia
- Floodings and revolts in places like Haiti
- Invasions of sovereign countries (aka Iraq)
- Genocides we have almost no news about (aka Congo)
- Reelection of politicians that have rendered to put the rest of the World under a great risk (there's no need to say who am I talking about)
- Terrorist attacks that kill hundreds of innocents (remember Beslan, Madrid, asablanca, ...)
- State terrorist attacks that kill hundreds of people (remember Fallujah, Colombia, Palestine, ...)
I could continue with the list, but I don't want to be sad in a day that should be happy for everybody.
Best wishes for all of you, specially for those that are far from home and helping others as only you can do.

The last week of 2004 brought a heavy dose of reality, I think I will join those Germans about to cancel out their New Year's celebrations to donate the money to the victims.
We need 2005 to arrive with good news, and pronto!
