Unfortunatly.

Not entirely obsolete. Having recently visited Cuba (legally as a working
journalist), I listen to Radio Havana almost every night. Got a chance to
meet three of the folks working there during my stay in Havana. Fascinating
country. Wonderful people. All they need is a little freedom and
opportunity.



Oh is that all. Just a "little freedom and opportunity".
