Progress report

It is 40+ degrees C in Baghdad, over 105 degrees F, and the country's power grid is on the brink of collapse with most of the country getting only a couple of hours of power a day. This means no refrigeration and little or no water. But I am sure that if the country had water the residents would use it to grow flowers with which to greet American and British soldiers!

Note to Americans: air conditioning is not a basic human right so don't forget to turn yours off below say 30 degrees C (85 F) and help save the planet!
