It is wonderful that people share what they feel and what they think. Mr president, Let me tell you about this little village in Iran, where a stream flew and women would put the basket o dirty clothes on their head and go sit by the stream and wash the clothes and chat, ofcourse they talked behind their husbands, their in laws, and perhaps cursed one another once in a while, but you know what happened? One day when the stream dried up the rate of divorce increased dramatically in the village. Of course you can guess why, that little chit chat depleted all the negative energy and after the stream dried up, the source of interralation dried up as well. I am talking to you might understand me far more than my own representative, Ahmadinejad, otherwise I would have asked him to let go of the bloggers, but i don't even think talking to him would be fruitful. Yours with respect Elinor, a blogger from Iran President Asad,
