Back to War? Good time to leave Sri Lanka…

From the BBC: “The Sri Lankan military says it has begun an aerial assault on rebel positions in north-eastern Sri Lanka, telling the BBC it could not stand by after the attack on its headquarters.”

We are nowhere near the violence, not to worry.

Our sponsors in New York just called and told us to be prepared for an evacuation, although we’ll probably be able to fly out on our originally scheduled flight on May 2, unless the shit really hits the fan before then.
