Gidget to speak on Wednesday. Safe play would be to discuss Alaska's current trade with Asia plus future potential. As best I recall we're the only US state to have a trade surplus with Asia: fish, timber, coal, natural gas, air cargo refueling, petroleum consulting and service, aviation technology, tourism, gold, reindeer antlers (Arctic Viagra to some folks <g>), etc.
But of course they're egging her on to hit the controversial political themes... ;)
