Dear Paula,

In reading some of the reports on Richard Gere's visit to the refugee camps, I noticed an amusing fact--nobody knew who he was. In fact, one of the accounts of Tony Blair's trip also pointed out that most people thought he was an American statesmen (which he might as well be). Gwyneth Paltrow might be in for a similar surprise. I guess not too many Kosovar Albanians have seen Shakespeare in Love.
