Wow, good choice. I'd never heard of the guy, but a quick Google has earned Dr. Yunus a lot of respect in my eyes.

Wow. This guy is impressive. I take it the loans aren't even interest free? Its amazing really, but so simple. Sometimes the most amazing things seem so simple after they're figured out though. Much respect to Dr. Yunus.
