I'm planning on visiting Cuba this year Larry ...Wiyh my Cdn.passport of
course...( not just for pc though...always wanted to learn to Salsa !)

I know there are many Cdn developers already in cahoots with locals just
ready to build all manner of generic big-ass resorts as soon as they can...
I think you will see the type of development that makes us cringe happen so
fast it will be scary... Scarier still will be how most Cubans will cheer
it and welcome it as progress...Very discouraging indeed....

Is permaculture (per se) being practiced and taught in Cuba?
Are there any online resources on this topic?

What would happen if Cuba became the 54th US state? Would the
multinationals, i.e. Monsanto, ADM, Cargill
and others move in, shove aside all existing Cuban organic farming,
vermicomposting, PC and other natural technologies beyone value?

There must be a way for the Cuban people to keep what they have yet be free
of the yoke of communism and domination by multinational
ag conglomerates and transnational trade agreements like NAFTA.

Is there a PC-flavored democratic solution to solve Cuba's economic and
development problems. I don't think it is Cuba's destiny to become
a mid-Carribean whorehouse as some have implied.

Comments?
