People are afraid. We don't know what will happen with the laws being proposed, but some are harsh.

My hopes for this fast are simply that many conversations will be sparked and that people will stop and think for a moment about how their actions affect such crucial elements of Iraqis' daily life. When I tell friends, family and acquaintances that I will be participating in an electricity fast they are often dumbfounded as to how that is possible. This is exactly the response that I hope to challenge; to show others that what we see as difficult or nearly impossible is the reality for many people.

I'll try to carry over some stuff Bob did, but there will be some new things people will see. We graduated three senior starters so most people will probably see it as a rebuilding year, but time will tell how good we are.

We just help. We don't ask their status.

I think we could do juice and soda and lots of water.

People did come up here because they didn't have it. Some of them say they will still come up here. I think that'll help a whole lot because they've been coming here for years.
