One of the proffered reasons for hitting the meteorite with the "washing machine" was to learn about the bits of similar meteorites which go into making each of us.
So millions of dollars spent on knowledge about the make-up of human beings whilst millions of us starve and die. A fair trade-off?
So will pop-concerts do it? Or G8 meetings? Or Clown faced anarchists demonstrating? Or the BBC having an Africa week? Or any other large scale organized event or effort? Or NGOs with their men in white suits descending from aeroplanes in exotic places and driving new vehicles (4x4s of course) specially imported for the purpose? Will any of these do it?
To borrow a phrase from the Lenny Henry show - "I don't fink sooo!"
