The most populous Islamic nation on earth is a massive archipelago, land lubber.

This is interesting, I'd love to read/hear more about it. Is the negotiation an above-board thing? What are the conditions and costs to getting this kind of exception ensured?

Funny you should say that. I'm in NYC and I like the tap water. When I travel--like to Texas recently--I can't drink the tap water, it tastes horrible to me. And New Yorkers take a lot of pride in our water actually, it tastes hugely different from most of the rest of the country. Goes to show how personal taste is I guess.

I've had Google alerts for "Silk Road" for the past 3 or 4 years. My focus is on black markets but I've inadvertently learned a lot about China's development plans (and a few cool historical articles as well).

To kill "dark web" we need a good alternative. I'm all ears!

Yes, this is how it works.

As a reporter who receives these kind of emails from PR flacks all day, I can say that it is as simple and stupid as this in most cases. I can't say with 100% certainty that no one ever just pays a reporter to write PR bullshit but most of the time it's gross laziness.

I'm not sure that claim itself makes it likely or unlikely. Could be the truth, could be an obfuscation tactic. No way of knowing at this point.
