I barely wrote anything …. just a quick cut and paste to acknowledge the event. This is because it is Friday, and Friday, and friday is not a blogging or writing day for me (at least not until evening).

So, there wasn’t much to comment on. Maybe I will write something controversial and thought provoking later.

(I won’t mention the chemistry thread since it’s probably partly my fault it’s up to 67 and counting.)

So here’s a comment: congratulations Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Leymah Gbowee, and Tawakkul Karman. And for those wanting more detail, this report from Bloomberg (via Business Week) seems to have the most of what Google brought up for me.
