Cuban President Fidel Castro (bottom R) sits amidst the audience during an event in Pinar del Rio, Cuba January 17, 2006. President Castro unveiled a network of small power generators in Pinar del Rio province on Tuesday, the first step in a vast plan to overhaul Cuba's inadequate electricity system and end chronic outages. The new strategy is part of an ambitious plan that also calls for replacing millions of inefficient electric stoves, refrigerators and other household appliances, some of them made in the United States and in use since before Castro's 1959 revolution.

What a shame! I heard that nine of the ten hamsters running the generator wheel starved to death.

Is this anything like his miniature cattle initiative?

I don't know about you, but it sounds almost California-style in its faddishness.

Is this how he's spending Hugo Chavez' money?

Why don't we just replace the communist terrorist totalitarian tyrant with a popularly elected capitalist pro-American freedom-loving governor instead? Everything else then would fix itself rather quickly.
