Oh, man, Jaime you had to dig that up! The evil that men do ... or write ... lives on ... eternally it seems on line. Right after the Revolution in Egypt I was on the first cruise ship that went into Alexandria and we went to the then newly opened Library of Alexander. Aside from the long line of beautiful computer carrels, and every computer in use was on Facebook!, the Library of Alexander is one of one or two places in the world where the ENTIRE INTERNET is backed up! Everything from everywhere that was ever online is available. So yes, I got banned from the original site ... ancient history for most current expats ... and had questions about Bud's "heavy-handed" administration, but, after watching Ning, mostly from afar, I now better appreciate the need for some administration and ... order. I don't really know Bud, other than to say hello, but I appreciate all that he has done, sung and unsung, for Boquete and here, again, he steps up to the plate. I wish him well and promise to behave. I have nothing against NIng, although I always found it too complicated and hard to navigate for myself, and I wish the new owners well. I'm all for capitalism and making a buck. But when a community bulletin board is owned and operated by people who don't live here, know or understand Boquete, I think something very important is lost. Jaimie, I used to know the young guy in the picture on that post. And I still believe that if you have an opinion express it and don't hide behind anonymity. Regards, Richard
