Yes, you bolt them down tight with anchor bolts set into full concrete foundations, it's done all over and works well - but my point is, people won't trust them, if they perceive them to be light they will perceive them to be weak [hey when you rap on the wall it sounds hollow - bloque doesn't do that, it's solid] ... mind you, i don't know Belize, but i do know well a lot of people about 200km due west of the centre of B ... and they wouldn't go for it, no way, even before hearing the price, which i maintain is likely to be far higher, triple or much more. And there's still the question of cooling efficiency. "The Belize Thing fell apart because the former Minister of ousing Hubert Elrington, was a first class crook, stole somewhere in the neighbourhood of 7 million. Made deals with all sorts of companies, that he wasn't authorized to do. " Yeah, the corrupcion - endemic ... you not only have to know what you're doing, you have to know who you're doing it with, very very well ... it's a different way of thinking, it works fine once you know what to look for ..... it works both ways, btw - there are many stories in México of foreigners that don't come off looking so good ... again, i don't know B ... there is a stereotypical perception in southern M that the natives of B are not to be trusted ... this may have something to do with the quality of those who cross the border, and the stolen car trade [US cars to B] among others. "As for the Board of Directors .... Personally I couldnt give a rip. " Don't you think it's just basic to know who runs a publicly-traded company? [edit] - hey your post is gone
