From the "Better Late than Never Files"...

Comes the story of the British island of Sark which, after 450 years, has finally got around to trying this "democracy" thing everybody's been talking about. Making things even crazier is the fact that Sark also has banned automobiles. No word on whether or not indoor plumbing is sanctioned.

I really think that before we tried to bring democracy to Iraq, we should have done a dry run at Sark. Advantages:
1) Less likelihood of getting blown up by angry insurgents
2) Larger supply of marmite

Argue against that, if you can.
