Some time ago, I read this essay by Kim du Toit, former African with an insider's look at Africa.

I have to say, I have never seen anything, ever, to dispute what he says or that indicates any improvement. It's a sad, sad thing.

Thank you for an excellent post. I hope everyone reads it. One little inconsistency though. After a long description of experience with death he said he was pretty much immune to the effects unless, 'accidental.' A little confusing. Regards.

Amazing essay, thanks!
