I had to read the entire thing again and ponder it. So because too many college grads can not pass the entry exam into medical school , the move is to...eliminate the entry exam. It's like the vehicle safety inspection here. Too many cars could not pass one here. Solution? Eliminate the actual "exam"......all cars pass bald tires n all. Brakes? only an option.

Yes......please let us know

I can hardly believe this .

wow........I doubt this will end quietly

This is where the study dollars will come from?.....hmmmm I'm pondering that a bit. This is one of those studies that could fer sure put some Martinellis in the studiers' pockets. You could make a career out of it.

At a cost....theirs I hope

Our neighbor's issues inside the house came from an area around the outside of the house. .This area was constantly moist. He installed gutters. He also dug a trench around the side of the house that was the wettest. It was about 2 feet deep or so. Then he laid down a barrier plactic sheet all along the side of the house . He then filled that with gravel . He did this in the dry season. Now time will tell.

No fines?

If $400.00 is the annual coconut foundation contribution, maybe $200.00 twice a year might be easier. We could do that. Alison and Bill Two coconuts

Source of moisture needs to be eliminated first or it's a forever deal.

Bathers should be cautious of old ladies riding boats.........

Bald tires are common. ( sold as slightly used in lots all over Panama)

wow...and who gets to pay for the damage? Thank God nobody was killed. Also thank God there's vehicle inspections......like brakes checking on heavy haulers.

Me too and it drives my husband nuts. I'm perpetually nervous in the passenger seat.

My husband narrowly escaped being T-boned (hit square side on) in Boquete yesterday. He was on the side road driving by the library and a car blew the intersection non stop. Bill landed in the ditch. Fortunately there were no obstructions to hit as he avoided that near collision. sigh....seems to never end ....the surprises on the road.

SOL? Nah. Call the police ! Was your phone not working???? Learn how to say "I need help" Then learn how to recite your address.....in Spanish. period

To say Rodney Direct..." .no service " I believe should have been discussed with Rodney directly not here. I agree with Keith 100% who BTW who was giving you sound advice. Hey if I have an issue with a person I go to them directly.....To blast him here on this forum was unfair to him. I do know that phone service was out on the coast and is out frequently when transmission issues arise. That may well have been the case here.

We have been with him from the very start. 4;00 am , when I needed an ambulance for a neighbor is bad shape Rodney helped...and that neighbor was not with his service. He as well was outstanding when another neighbor had a home invasion...and one of the residents was Panamanian and spoke fluent Spanish!! In an emergency, Rodney is a vital asset to you. To drop his service would be ( as my mom would tell me)...."Biting your nose to spite your face" Crazy. Don't drop. . ...his service is ridiculously inexpensive for the value. Alison

Nothing specific...like was it weed killer ? Another question is how clean are the ruptured lines everywhere that are exposed to everyday runoff of Roundup ( weed killer) , Arebo ( insecticides) etc. There are lines that are so open it's like a river running. Are folks that can not afford water filtration a/o bottled water then vulnerable ?

Dear Dog Camp...You have our support. We hope Anita gets well and finds a happy home real soon. Thank you and the person that found her for such compassion and dedication. Alison, Bill and Flossy ( who was once a street dog too)

Yup...Ok I think we got it !....nuff said
