right to exist.
" Because of globalization and the integration of
the world economy, Blair said it was in the self-
interest of the United States and Europe to ensure
world stability and prosperity by actively promot
ing freedom and democracy. Cooperation between
the two is crucial to the success of the war on ter
rorism, Blair said.
“The world works better when the United
States and Europe stand together. Our common
interests dwarf the divide,” Blair said.
Blair also discussed the special bond between
Britain and the United States, and praised
America’s response to the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

“Despite the mud and the
mess, we would have stayed if
it had just stopped raining,”
Welch said.
“I aim sorry that so many
people left early,” Garcia said.
Despite the weather, Garcia
said all the bands, including Pat
Green and Chris LeDoux, per

afternoon after slight delays.
During the heavy rains,

Environmentalists feel that Bush’s plan does
little to limit America’s consumption of energy
and instead focuses on improving energy supplies
which can harm the environment.
But Waltar says there is also a need to find
alternate ways to power the country’s everyday
appliances.
“We have to wean ourselves away from Mid
East oil. It’s a finite energy source, and over the
long term we need to fuel our airplanes and cars,”
Waltar said.
Associate Vice Chancellor for Engineering and
Deputy Director of the Texas Engineering
Experiment Station Dr. B. Don Russell is part of a
group of energy specialists working for the
National Academies to study types of technology
to see where energy fits in and advise the country
on energy issues.
Many fans leaving in the
rain caused accidents and some
began playing and wrestling in
the mud. Cars were stuck in
mud parking lots and needed
tow trucks to pull them out.
“There was enough law
enforcement to help with the
problems associated with the
rain,” Garcia said.
As of 10 a.m. Saturday, the
Burleson County Sheriff’s
office reported 38 arrests and
15 accidents in combined fig
ures from constables and offi
cers of the Texas Alcohlic
Beverage Commission
(TABC). The accidents were
not related to alcohol, but most
were related to the rain, slick
roads and heavy two-way traf
fic caused by people leaving
early and those arriving at the
same time.
