This NY Times story on North and South Korea to put together a single team for the 2008 Beijing Olympics makes me happy. I've never been the biggest Korean nationalist, but I can't help a smile after reading it.
Yes, there is still the issue of exactly how to go about forming the teams, practice facilities and movement across the border to do so, but this is an incredible step. A step showing the world that North Korea is getting more serious about not being as isolationist a state as it has been.
Baby steps.
