Dear Diary:
More exciting press for Sweet Crude! Check this out:

Dear Friends of Sweet Crude:

Just a quick note to let you know that CNN International’s Inside Africa program this week features two segments about the Niger Delta, one of them about Sweet Crude!

Check out the program descriptions at http://www.cnn.com/2007/WORLD/africa/12/28/inside.africa/ -- the third and fourth stories in the “read” tab. Beginning on Wednesday, you should be able to access videos in the “video” tab.

Inside Africa airs in limited markets in the U.S. We are told that Comcast and Time Warner cable carry it and that this week’s show will air at 12:30 pm Saturday, May 24^th. We are unable to find it in any tv listings – it’s possible it airs inside another CNN show. We hope you can find it in your location.

If you are outside the U.S., you should have better luck. Inside Africa airs widely in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Latin America and Asia. Check the Inside Africa web site mentioned above for schedules.

One more thing: A couple of days ago, we told you about the Seattle Times editorial and blog entry. There’s a place for you to comment on the story here: http://blog.seattletimes.nwsource.com/edcetera/2008/05/think_130_a_barrel_is_high_for.html. If a bunch of us say thanks for the story or offer some thoughts, the Times will know this is an issue people care about and one they should continue to cover. So we hope you will take a minute to do this.

As always, thanks so much for your interest and support
