Jounalist Laurie Garrett wrote an informal e-mail to some of her friends while she was attending the World Economic Forum in Davos in January. A week with the planet's ruling class. It is an excellent peek into what went on there. But she hadn't meant for anybody but her close friends to read it. That prompted a big discussion and she was offended that her casual chatty e-mail got forwarded around to the whole world. Well, I'd say it got forwarded because it is the truth, and because official articles in newspapers would tend to bury it deeper. A personal account from a real person is often more desirable.
