The highest GDP per capita in the world (aka tons and tons of rich people densely concentrated in a small area)

Antigua has mountains?

Small ones, yes. They'd be considered "hills" elsewhere, I'd say.

And yes, our PM did rename Boggy Peak (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Obama), the island's highest point (1319 ft).

They put up a commemorative plaque, and spelled his name wrong. (http://kagedbird.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/mount-obama-9.jpg)

Post by: Zoomie on October 11, 2009, 01:39:59 PM: Did they fix it or would it empty the national coffers to do so? That plaque looks like it came from Al's Trophy Shop down the street.

I feel sorry for Obama
People are treating the guy like a messiah. I would think that would cripple a person politically. I'm sure more would be getting done if this was more of a horns-down push in the direction of change rather than the delicate eggshell dance that's going on to avoid disappointing anyone as the the anticipation builds. I feel like Obama should take a page from GWB's "history will vindicate me" treatise and strive for glory despite the short term fallout.

Coz, that's what I'd like to do.

My sister and her bf have hiked Boggy Peak since it was renamed. So I guess that means they mounted Obama?

They named it Iceland, so no one would want to go there.
