It would almost seem as if the Domincan Republic knows something they don't want the Spanish to find out.

Ping! I always think of you when I see posts like this but usually you've already been there and have several posts already in the can ... Maybe you're on the can?

Why mess with a perfectly good tourist attraction?

Columbus is buried there. That's their story and they're stickin' to it.

I imagine that they're worried about a loss of tourism if it turns out Old Chris isn't in that box.

He isn't buried in Hispaniola or Spain. I have in on good authority that he voted for John Kerry in Chicago, New York and Philadelphia in November, 2004.

Dominican authorities were upset with reports that researchers would do more than visually inspect the bones.

So the Dominicans were fine showing them that there were bones, but all of a sudden got concerned when they found out there might be ways of checking whether they were the real bones. My money would be on Spain.
