South African scammers have been selling Summit tickets to the gullible, while the Pretenders have canceled their "SOS Planet" concert appearance. Meanwhile, there is no more accomodation available around the Summit site, so maybe things will look up for the discouraged sex workers. Saving the best for last, the South African Press Association reports:
United States President George W Bush will be notable by his absence at the Johannesburg Earth Summit from August 26 to September 4, leaving the US with the prospect of being branded the scapegoat if the summit fails.Pretty scary, eh kids?
