    Iranian PM, Ahmanidiotjan got his rocks off at the OPEC summit praising the Saudi's and getting rather excited about the drop in the dollar, claiming it is "the fall of the American empire".

A few other choice quotes:

  Hugo Chaves said that OPEC should be more political.  "OPEC should set itself up as an active political agent," he said.
