Mikhail Gorbachev, The Dalai Lama & Jimmy Carter

What do these people have in common? Yes, the answer is obvious. They're all Nobel Peace Laureates! These people have done great works in our world toward the betterment of human existance across the globe.

And they're coming to Gwangju.

Yes, Emily and I received our tickets in the mail today. We are going to get to see some Nobel Laureates give speeches on different topics next week. It should be most interesting. We're not actually sure who is going to be there - hopefully all of the above people and then some, but perhaps not. There's been political problems with the Dalai Lama's visa. Apparently China would get upset if South Korea granted him a visa, so he may not be coming.

Regardless, it should be a good time. Whoever it ends up being there, we'll tell them you say hello.
