OK smitty I'm up for a truce.

I think we both know that V & C are under a lot of pressure now that the bombing has stopped.

I guess that the bottom line is that Mr. Allen's "rant" is something that you should welcome since it will go a long way to dissuade finicky travelers from visiting.

I have to say that your posts are a bit of a paradox...you promote the locals as being famous for "showing respect" and yet belittle a visitor who complains because he feels that he can't get any while there.

Let me ask something and I'm not really trying to antagonize you but, don't you feel any sort of guilt for moving there and depriving a local of a job?

How do you feel about johnny-come-lately, non-Puerto Ricans buying up properties there after the brave Viequenses spent years struggling to free themselves from the US Navy?

My respect for them is immense and I wish them well as they try to maintain control of their destiny in spite of the politicians ans investment-minded gringos.
