Hopefully this will be something positive.

From an e-mail I just received:
Subject: Fwd: Latvia on CBS



Monday, Feb. 1 on the CBS news at 6:30 -7:00 pm.  with Katie Courik Latvia
will be featured in the news. The astronauts in the space capsule circling
the earth, are spinning an inflatable globe and wherever his finger
lands, CBS sends a news crew to explore that part of the world. Last week it was
about a family living in India.On Mon., Riga will be featured. Usually
this item is featured just before the end of the telecast at about 6:50 or
so.

Another positive thing…

SAS (the airline company) very recently took out a full-page ad in an US national newspaper that did mention in their printed, very short list of great cities of the “world”, Riiga.

From Latvia, with Muscles

Most strikingly:

After the Berlin Wall fell in 1991, guess who got on the cover of a lot of those same magazines?

Did anyone see the Couric report? Can you provide a summary of what was in it? From here all we can see is snow. Lots of it.

Irena,

That was definitely a positive story. Thanks for the announcement and thanks to Aleks as well for posting the link.
