Oman! v/d Z Opens Middle East Lead

Amsterdam, 8 February, 2008.  Mr v/d Z sent word via SMS of his sixth country visit to the Middle East, this time to Oman, opening a one country lead on Mr Karam.  Close observers of these proceedings will recognize the seasonality of v/d Z's travel to this region, having of course scored a hat trick just one year ago.  This is v/d Z's 84th country, still four shy of a tie for second with Mr Greeley.  v/d Z needs a camera in his phone badly; still no photo and no beverage recorded.
