We are obviously going to disagree on this. Lacking solid evidence I see no reason to assume evil or selfish motivation about either the father or the Miami relatives. I am not sure that the Miami relatives will make a bundle off of this, but even if they do it does not mean that they were motivated by greed or did not care for Elian. I wonder why in hotly disputed cases people always have to attack the motives and character of the other side. Even if we assume for the sake of argument that your position on the overall question (should Elian go back to his father?) is correct, why do those who are wrong have to be demonized? Tim
