Ethan responds reasonably and forcefully to Brian‘s response to his snarky-but-telling post about Live 8.
For me it comes down to this: I can’t imagine that people going to a big rock concert will change the mind of any G8 leader, but if Live 8 makes debt relief trendy, I’m all for it. After all, trendiness seemed to have an effect on ending Apartheid in the 80s.
