Adios G-Ocho
A magnificent prize, consisting of a lovely Pez dispenser, to anyone who can name a significant achievement of the G8 summit in the last five years. On the other hand, we all remember the fun-loving roadies who came along to Genoa, to Evian, now to Gleneagles. The G8 summits cost multiple millions of pounds/dollars/euros to stage, and that's only taking into account the lost productive time of the top government people involved. As for the destruction, Geneva is still paying for the chaos caused by the Evian demonstrators (uh, kids, different country here, not even close to being G8).
The meeting is kabuki symbolism, serving to draw the unproductive types bent on slowing world development. And now these scruffy buggers have been joined by the adult thugs who actually blow up subways.
The most productive thing Tony could have done was propose there be no more G8 conferences.

It wasn't that bad. They were able to agree on a couple problems that exist. So I'm glad that all those heads of state got together for that. We did the same once at Irish pub and came up with more or less the same list. I wish our beers there had been subsidized. Who do I call about that?
Yes Ocean, you, Yatta, Adrian and Dubya.
I want subisidized beers!
But if they did call it G-Ocho do you think some protestors would be a little happier as it reaches out to minorities somewhere which are majorities in other places and so then it would still offend the minority in those places and now I need to lie down.
