Rhetorical question? "Many members are complaining" was how it was explained to me. I can wait for others to provide an explanation. Or you could provide one, Penny? The admins have cautioned me yet again about how valuable Keith is to the activity count here on CL. Apparently some of my replies have already been blocked. Or we looking at a rebirth of boquete.org here? Keith provides traffic to CL, pretty much non-stop. Much of it is irrelevant to Boquete or even Chiriqui. But it is activity so that's good. I was invited to join CL, by the admins. I apologize for being such a disappointment. (The odds on anyone seeing this post are slim.) jim

And from a life-long resident of Boquete from before the time of arrows painted at the street corners. He was also doubtful about a new Panamonte bridge.

OK, I had to contact some family to get their view, here is what I learned. Calle 4a between Av. Central y Centenario is two way. Leaving Baru toward the park one can go straight or turn right but no left turn toward Los Cabezos. Traffic either way on Av. Central may not make a left turn at Calle 4a as Keith noted. They also said it would all soon be a moot point as the water project is about to tear up Central to install sewer lines. No idea on how long that was going to take.

Just be thankful there are no easy left turns like these.

Spanish arrows! OMG, I spit my coffee reading that one! The system is really simple, if you see arrows, choose one and follow it. It ain't rocket surgery.

My wish would be to clean up that mess of technology on the peak. Probably too much to hope for. Maybe when the cable car system from Volcán is built?

Thanks, Bonnie. My reactions would be:

For the record. I do not care for the latest upgrade to CL. The enhanced reputation (including a name change to "reactions") claims to make CL more like facebook. Being more like facebook should not be a goal for a forum platform. The goal of a forum should be to provide information, news, or events of interest to the members for discussion and reference. The main rating system should be: is it useful to me, or not useful to me. IMHO, TMI, LOL, and AFAIK. jim

Interesting bit of for sale news about the island's history. https://www.prlog.org/10182649-worlds-most-expensive-island-listed-with-costa-rica-real-estate-experts-buyingcr.html

Seems like a valid legal request by his lawyers. The headline is just for sensationalism effect. http://www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-world/article163335338.html PS. Bud, did I fianally get the formatting right? Still learning.

Back in the day when ladies were "married" to their house after leaving their factory jobs that saved the world.

And the crime.

Then there was the map I posted showing one way traffic.

My guess would be unions.

True. The only time I have seen this was in Brussels in October 2001 returning to the US. Just after 9/11 and everyone was overdoing checks.
