The Emergency Response Rooms in Sudan is the kind of organization that *should* receive the Nobel Peace Prize. Absolutely fantastic work that should be a model for civil society and humanitarian work everywhere.

Medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits, and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.
