Ken has two suggestions. First that we discuss whether George Bush should be impeached. Second, he's seen about corruption in Taiwan and wonders if there's a broader discussion to be had about this issue (it's close to Ohioans heart).

We're unsure about the first because last week we didn't see overwheleming evidence that people are talking about this. Also, we've spent a lot of time on US politics recently. The second story is more interesting, although is it big enough story to prompt a wide discussion about corruption? We'll see.

ANNA'S TURN. You can see all her story suggestions here. The one that grabs us is which prompts vigilante action. Ken says he's seen it from time to time asnd it certainly gets people talking and dviides opinion so that's clinched it. We're going to try and speak to people in the towns affected and to some of the folks behind the show.

Karnie thinks we're overdue a look at what's heppening in Sri Lanka, in particular at child soliders. She's been reading about new finidng from the UN. There's disagreement here. It's undoubtedly a good news story, but what will be asking and who exactly will we be able to speak to? There are going to be problems with language as well the fact that neither child soldiers or those who use them will be queuing up to speak to us. We could just end up with someone from an NGO saying that child soldiers have to be helped. Something that lots of you would agree with, but can we further the story and the discussion? Karnie is going to see if there any organisations that can put us in touch with children and families that have been affected. Not going to make today, but maybe later in the week.

Rabs delivers the story we all agree on. A show with the word 'niggas' has been told in advertising on London Transport because the word is offensive. You'll see our colleagues at the Radio 4 show PM have already been debating this. Some words are so unacceptbale very few people use them and there's not much to talk about. This is different because 'the N word' is extensively used in black music and clearly when it offends is affected by who says it and where they say it. We're going to try and get the man behind the show (Reginald D Hunter) to come on.

Joe now and he's two South American stories. Now this has to be the hardest continent for us - because of the number of people who speak English, and also because, to be frank, we don't have the contacts we do elsewhere and the number of people who use the Â鶹Éç are lower than elsewhere. But both these ideas are excellent. First this story about and attitudes towards violence in the home, and second, this story about whether Venezuela's expanding economy . Joe's going to look at both - if you can help, please get in touch.

Hasit has just been reading with the man behind a new in Kentucky in the States. There's no disagreement that he'd be a fascinating man to get on and that there would be an appetite from all of you to interview him. Correct us if we're wrong, otherwise Hasit is going to call today to see if it might be possible for later in the week.

There's also the row over that have been directed towards an English cricket by an Australian fan. We're split on this. Can we have a broader discussion about racism in Australia on the back of one comment? Should we wait to see if it happens again (Karnie and Hasit think it will)? And anyway says James (recently arrived and Australian) it's bad but it happens in lots of sports crowds. Where do you stand on this? A big talking point, or just one bloke speaking out of line and representing no-one?

And last but not least. As I'm writing this, we've heard that our correspondent in Afghanistan, Alastair Leithead, is going to be able to speak to us tonight. He's been with British troops there for 9 days and will be answering your questions. You can read his diary of his time with the troops , and read other people's questions . If you've a question, you can post it right here on the blog.

A long meeting, lots of stories. I'll post in a while to say which ones we've chosen. Thanks for your contributions Ken.
