Thanks once again, Albert. Comments like yours make me think that it is worthwhile to keep on blogging. Once a woman on whose property we were staying said that she didn’t understand why people were hostile to Mexicans in the United States. “After all,” she said, “They’re our neighbors.” Similarly, how can we mistreat Mother Earth so badly. It is our constant companion.

Thank you Michael for another insightful essay based on your observations and travel. Your chronicle appears to be unfolding as an epic war of predation against the beauty and treasure of our common patrimony. Justice is done by your uncovering of history. Justice is History. Like Herodotus wrote, an historian must be equipped with a good pair of boots. Keep on traveling and letting us know what happened to our country.
