HOWARD WADMAN (writer, broadcaster, and publicity specialist): 1. I should like to see Germany learning contrition (the product of forgiveness and sympathy), Britain becoming impatient (with the starched dunderheads who are getting ready to tell us what can't be done), the U.S.A. developing humility (with regard to other people's problems, and a conscience with regard to their own), and New Zealand gaining imagination (through a national theatre and a huge influx of foreigners). 2. The only change I expect is that even less people will be united and hopeful at the end of the year than are at the beginning. As this is rather dampening, may we concentrate on another question What changes in myself would I like to see this year, and how can they be effected?
