<br></div><div>A friend in Nairobi just emailed me this print article (attached)  in the Biz Daily paper where my comments on the ETNO proposal last week are featured as the &quot;blog of the week&quot; and my personal email address included as the &quot;title of the blog&quot; </div>


<div><br></div><div>This is an outrageous abuse of this forum where the discussion is often open and insightful - do people now have to worry that their comments on Kictanet will be passed off as an article somewhere? </div>
