Qatar

Okay - Dan and Sonya are in Qatar. And I didn't even know how to spell the country let alone know where it is. So here are a few places to learn about Qatar.

What I've learned so far is most of the country is Wahhabi; there is a lot of sand; the emir is Sheikh Hamad Khalifa Al-Thani and he has a really beautiful wife (maybe more than 1, I don't know); and only 25% of the population is from Qatar (there are a lot of Pakistanis there). And life expectancy is 71 (but is that only for the Qataris or for the pakistanis and other workforce as well?)
