28758: Clerie (reply): Re: 28747: Kathleen - cherie, fear in the streets of PortauPrince (fwd)





From: Philippe Clerie <philippe@gcal.net>


Meanwhile, the female head of PNH public relations goes to Miami for a
presentation on tourism prospects for Haiti.  Don't you agree this is
another dis, a HUGE disconnect?

You bet! But then, this is _wishful thinking_ country. People make no
difference between plausibility, possibility, probability and certainty. And
it's particularly hard to take when the people in question have earned (one
hopes) college degrees.

Another way to put it is, as Voltaire did, _Mentez! mentez!, il en restera
toujours quelque chose!_

(For the french challenged, that would translate as (literally): Lie, lie!
There will always be something left)
