Still, what the hell, I guess we should run it. The Salient will undoubtedly be on our asses for writing about ourselves again, but these are desperate, ugly times. Still, maybe we should warn our readers that what follows is a highly personal account, and is in no way representation of anything we actually think, or even feel...in the meantime, I'll work on getting Eleni a nice assignment, maybe out in Worcester or some other shithole...this type of craziness can't continue...
...casualties rose, the medics were forced to dart from one stricken soldier to another.

Mandela is the first to warn his voters against complacency. The "greatest danger," he tells the crowds, comes from "members of the A.N.C. themselves." Surveying the bewildered faces before him, he continues, "If we believe we have already won the election, a large number of people who support us may prefer to remain in their homes."
