They've already had three?

They've already had three? Fellow MeFites, I would like to present you the opportunity to attend the Fourth Rebuilding Iraq Expo, to be held April 26-29 in Arbil, Iraq. Sure wish I could make it.

It may be cancelled, like the Baghdad Expo, and the Basra Oil and Gas Conference

Sheesh, seeing that they give about 3-4 months between expos, it reminds me a bit too much like a Computer Show and Sale... Iraq needs some CEEE-DEE ROMMMMS, bootlegged Windows install disks, and gallons and gallons of printer ink. And cell phone holders.

Q: In an emergency, how can I leave Iraq? A: In case of a personal emergency, New Fields will assist you in every way possible. We will have a doctor on site for medical emergencies. The quickest way to leave Iraq from Arbil is through Turkey. Sounds good to me! (I like the "personal emergency"—what other kind could there be?)
