Wouldn't work, Fidel quit the puros years ago -g- ... anyway, all that would do would be to put Raulito in power ... which would open up a window of some opportunity, all right.

If they were my parents i would suggest to them that they go back, not worry too much about the few nickels that might temporarily aid the regime, because by calmly living the relative liberty they enjoy as US citizens they would set an example that would cost the communists much more ... even better, finance a dozen youth to go ... great life experience for them, it's the last communist state they're likely to have the opportunity to visit ... and no time like the present, one day soon it will collapse of its own weight.

Remember Berlin - one day people realised that the soldiers wouldn't shoot, and that the Stasi was all off burning records and trying to blend in with the populace, so they took down the wall by hand ... and with a beer in the other hand, in many cases ... Cuba could be like that.
