Oh, well sorry if I missed the intended sarcasm, but I'm having a real difficult time understanding some of your posts.

In # 11, for instance..

By the way: In all the Islands I've been to, The native people LOVE the tourists. Tourism is their livlihood. My sister was amazed because she was shown a video in one of her College classes on how the natives in one of the Islands we visited were oppressed and how WE (the tourists) killed their farming industry. Turns out- when we spoke to a native- IT was their local independent government's corruption.

I distinctly remember you stating on another thread that you had only traveled to Mexico, and now you have visited the islands.

Forgive me, but I am a simple person; I like to take folks at face value and want to believe them.

Contradictory statements confuse me.

It is becoming more difficult for me to lend credence to some of your ideas.
