Thanks Carole.

This will teach me to be lazy.  I was actually hoping someone would do
all the hard work of looking at all those charts for various contries, work
 out the times that the planets are rising and make a prediction of where a 
few trouble spots might be.  Then we could all do our astrological bit
and watch for suitable manifestations.

This what happens when you have Mars in Libra, you try to get others to do
the work for you.
