´óÏó´«Ã½

We have David, Karnie, Chloe (just with us for a day), Joe, Mark and Rabiya - though Rabs is working on our trip to Turkey. If you're there and want to tell us what we should talk about when we come, email us and I'll make sure she sees it.

FROM KARNIE:
I want to ask 'should doctors make every attempt to try and save babies no matter how premature? I was reading in the Telegraph, and I'm sure it's an issue which affects a lot of people.

NOW MY TURN:
I've been talking to one of Michael Kaloki in the ´óÏó´«Ã½'s Nairobi bureau. We've both been looking at issues around inheritance for African women. Mike says it's something a lot of women in Kenya are unhappy about and sent me . If you're from Africa, is it something you feel strongly about?

JOE WANTS TO TALK ABOUT FRANCE:
The French Socialist Party are for President - should we hear about the candidates and what they offer?
This is a story I heard on the this morning. I'm really unsure we should get into this race so soon.

KARNIE AGAIN:
She's being greedy but we'll hear her out. She's spotted that OJ Simpson and we might want to discuss its merits. Certainly he's an interesting character, but do you care if this book is a success or about its existence at all? Now Karnie mentions that he's also done an interview with . This is likely to get a masssive reaction. We going to wait and see what those of you in America make of what you see - if you're talking about it, we'll do the story when the interviews airs.

JAMES HAS SPOTTED A STORY IN JAPAN:
and here's the email he's sent me:
Nationalism is a big issue, one which gets people going passionately for and against, and it's one which has got listeners fired up on the show before. I think it's something which people around the world can relate to - I think you'd get interesting opinions from Japanese, Americans, Africans, Germans, etc. There's a good strong central question, plus some interesting sub-issues - for & against; hearing how important national pride is in various countries; and even if you're not against national pride, should it be something regulated by the government, or allowed to grow more organically.

We're convinced, are you? The question we're keen to ask if whether this kind of nationalism should be taught in every country. Would you be happy if it arrived on the curriculum in your local school? You can have your say on our .

CHLOE MAKES HER DEBUT WITH A SUGGESTION ABOUT THE POPE:

Here's her email:
'Pope Benedict XVI has called a meeting of his top advisers at the Vatican To date an estimated 70,000 former priests have been forced to leave their ministry in to marry.

Do Priests necessarily need to be celibate to be good at their job? We'd like to hear from Catholic priests and those who have been forced to leave their position because they have chosen to get married. Are you Catholic? How would you feel if your Priest wanted to get married? If the rules changed and it was ok for Priests to get married, could the rule be extended to monks and nuns, and perhaps even a future Pope?'

Plenty of questions from Chloe and we're all convinced there's an appetite to answer them. This may well make it.

LAST BUT NOT LEAST OUR ESTEEMED LEADER, MARK WITH THE LATEST IN CONGO:

He'd like to do the priests and the nationalism story (sorry Mark, we've heard those already) so turns to the election row in DR Congo. Joseph Kabila has been , but his rival Jean-Pierre Bemba is having none of it. We want to know if those of you in Congo are positive that elections have been held and a winner declared, or worried that Mr Bemba's challenge could pull the whole process of the tracks.

It's a story we've followed on WHYS and we are all agreed this seems like the right day to go back to it. There's no doubt that those of you in DR Congo are talking abut this - now we face the challenge of getting hold of you. The phone lines don't always make that easy. Post your views to our , and if you leave your number we'll try to get back to you.

I'll post in a while with the stories that have made the show.
