  • Germans Love David Hasselhoff: A live reading of The Shepherd has been an almost-annual tradition on the CBC program As It Happens since 1979.
  • Harsher in Hindsight: In The Fist Of God, analysts point out that if America is successful in killing Saddam Hussein in an air strike, only one of two outcomes are realistic: 1) Saddam will be replaced by an equally brutal and possibly cleverer despot, or 2) Iraq will fragment along ethnic lines in a much bigger and bloodier version of Yugoslavia's disintegration, refugees will number in the millions, and Iran will expand its influence into Iraq. The latter scenario isn't too far removed from what happened in real life after Saddam was toppled by the USA in 2003.
