Now, an electric wheelchair followed by a band of enthusiastic budding market traders does, indeed, sound like a great basis for a funny story... perhaps a blog one day?

Now, an electric wheelchair followed by a band of enthusiastic budding market traders does, indeed, sound like a great basis for a funny story… perhaps a blog one day?

I probably read a lot more danger into it because of my son's situation. Been to Tunisia and I loved the souks, the markets and the people. Have a funny story about an American in an electric wheelchair going through a 2000 year old souk, followed by a band of children. So glad, David.

A million dollar question! Libya was a fascinating experience and I hope to go again soon. But it is a place to BE experienced, not just read about! There is so much potential in the land and its people! Was anything at risk? If I was to go by the judgement of others then perhaps so; but, on my own instincts, I am prepared to make my own judgements and, in doing so, am alive to possibilities! The creative possibilities of the unknown are precious to me. So my answer would be yes. And there is as much risk in my own yard! :) Sharon! A million dollar question!

Take care, my friend. And be very, very careful. Is it true that which is risked becomes more precious? Ah, what doesn’t kill us makes us stronger, “they” say.

And be very, very careful.

I must admit, Micheal Crichton is yet another of those writers that I feel I have neglected in my own reading experience... for a writer, I am one of the worst readers I know! :) Hey, James, no need for any apologies – I’ve not been too hot on getting to comment myself, lately!

While I was reading your post, the late Michael Crichton's name leapt into my head. He had so much science gobblygook in his chapters that by the end you completely bought into the idea that we could clone dinosaurs and they could have us for dinner. Great points. Well done, Sir.

I would hate to think you were lying there incapable of imagining an erotic romance! :) (P.S. From What I have read, you cannot possibly class your self as a simpleton! I am affraid that just won't wash with me !!) Hi George, I hope with the time it has taken me to work the Libyan internet that your migrane has not taken hold!

I agree with you, believability (or my word, plausibility) is the key to an engaging plot! And yes, you do not have to travel out here to write about Libya, but it is fun!!!! :) Hi Greg, (from a sunny Tripoli!)… I agree with you, believability (or my word, plausibility) is the key to an engaging plot!
