I received an email the other day, thanking me for this blog. It seems that one man’s reading CC convinced him that Panama was not the place for him to move. He said he was convinced that house construction here would be as high as in the US. He also had decided that there were [...]

I just found a bunch of email in my spam bucket. I try to respond to all email within 24 hours of receipt. I have responded to all the mail I found today. If you sent mail longer than 30 days ago, I may have missed it.

After being down for over 12 hours, it appears that CC is back online. I know that my webhost is changing out equipment and I hope that was the reason. All morning I have been receiving email from last week that were comments on CC. That shows me that the host is recovering their libraries [...]
