'Oh, Yes We Have No Bananas' - lol ... don't know much about the FOs' banana crusade beyond the way they used local proxies to take and hold the land over the dead bodies of the inhabitants ... some of the stories of O Henry back a hundred years shed considerable light on attitudes .... 'Collected Stories of ..' 1979 edition Crown Publishers is common in used bookstores, ISBN 0-517-29455-9 ... if he didn't coin the term 'banana republic' one of his contemporaries did ...... here's a few snips of their 1966-present actions - gwu.edu

Quick post, gotta go escort turistas to one of my favourite places ..... entre otras una japonesa chiquitita, tan bonita, ay que celosa se va a poner La Patrona, pero ¿qué puedo hacer yo? </shrug> ;-)

One thing we need to remember is that this is not a question split on nationalistic lines [nor racial, duh] - it's a few bully-boy landowner FOs and then all the rest of us [they've got more Samuel Longhorne Clemenses down there than Richard Nixons, by a long shot] ..... perhaps lone-goon would like to explain why Pope&Talbot and Louisiana Pacific aren't siding with the FOs?? .... huh? .... speak up checkerboard boy, you're getting asked by a heinz57 btw ... but i digress - it's wider than nations, and simpler - just a few greedy arrogant SoBs against the rest of us willing buyers and willing sellers still trying to believe the norteamericano trade pact means something ..... and see how none are showing up to defend their actions, promote their bullshit charges? ... buncha gutless wonders ..... anywho, hi ho silver
