   Greetings from the Amsterdam Schipol Airport, during a six-hour layover.  I bought this book at the Dar es Salaam airport before leaving...My last post should be "tingatinga" (one word), not "Tinga Tinga."  It's from the person's name...The in-flight movies were SWEET HOME ALABAMA (which bashed New York City) and CHANGING LANES (which bashed Jewish lawyers).  I almost walked out.
