Otra Despedida

the bbc's bolivia correspondent, lola almudevar, and four bolivians were killed in a car crash early yesterday, and the reuters correspondent, a very good friend of mine, was seriously injured and is in the hospital in la paz right now. the foreign correspondent circle is so small here there's really no way to describe how much something like this rocks it.

here's jim schultz's tribute:
