Nature Balances Itself

Needless to say, I may start paying attention to this climate change beef:

Brothel owners in Bulgaria are blaming global warming for staff shortages.

They claim their best girls are working in ski resorts because a lack of snow has forced tourists to seek other pleasures.

Petra Nestorova, who runs an escort agency in Sofia, said: "We have hired students, but they are temps and nothing like our elite girls."

Maybe it is time to start paying attention to what is going on outside the estate. Not really, No Pasaran with the save and the travel book update:

Switzerland entered a treaty with the European Union to import workers, seeking more bankers, managers, and academics. What it got was an influx of prostitutes.

The number of people offering sex for money has risen by a third in Zurich and 80% in Geneva since Switzerland opened its borders to workers from the 15 E.U. member states at the start of 2004, police estimate.

Some lawmakers predict prostitution will grow even more after the government last year removed work restrictions for residents from 10 newer E.U. countries, as well.

I need a break from Majorca anyway.
