Day before gameday...

We've now set up a big filing center in the Radisson hotel according to White House specs, and are trying to anticipate what the international press might ask about when they converge upon us (more than 100 arriving on a charter plane this evening!) Probably not a great deal, as journalists will be pretty adept at finding what they need on the web, but we're prepared to answer any questions about Norway..or about anything else. The handy pocket guides and hardcopy handouts we used to prepare for such visits have now largely been supplanted by web resources, but the think-tank Mandag Morgen(Monday Morning) has put together an interesting "Special Report on Norway and the Nobel Peace Prize and generously agreed to provide us with copies for all the journalists. We're also trying to make ourselves as electronically available as possible, so that journalists can reach us without leaving their computers...via email, chat, phone and sms. Suggestions about anything else we should be doing will be greatly appreciated!
