Talking points 6 August

Good morning, and another new name on the blog for you – it’s Helen from the WHYS team here today. Many thanks to John in Nairobi and Robert in Europe for a great moderating debut.

Some of the topics being discussed overnight..

This was a conversation that started on here on the WHYS blog. This was the post from Bob in Queensland….

“On a theatre technicians forum I moderate, somebody has posted a job ad looking the crew to do lighting, sound, wardrobe etc. on a British tour of a musical. The production in question is based on a bible story and the ad specifies that the whole crew must be Christian.”

There’s a lively Twitter community here in Beijing and yesterday’s hot topic wasn’t the demo near Tiananmen Square or the deaths on the north western border, but why it was hard to get a good view anywhere in the city.
