IIRC, Steenmans made the main at the 01 and/or 03 Worlds. At least there's a recognizable name there.

I mean there are probably more westerners working in DRC/Somalia/Iraq companies etc than locals.Were does the safety fear "mentality" start and stop. Just my two cents.
I looked at going earlier in the summer. Would have cost me over $5,000 in travel expenses alone. It only cost me $300 to go to the West coast and back.
