Yeah, I suppose. I for one don't know what I'm on about in here, it's the compulsiveness of the forum posting, as it were.
I don't really have any steady ground to stand on for forming a real position, speaking only for myself.
I did work with a guy in Alaska who was Cuban and who told me he made the boat trip, in a boat with 8 guys or something.
He was a really soft spoken huge black guy. He seemed a somber fellow, but in the fishery we were all pretty somber fellows, so there's that. I'd be interested to actually sit quietly and listen to what people with actual backgrounds like him have to say though.
I also called on a lot of homes in Florida of Cuban emigres when I was working there for a bit. They were essentially all very friendly people, who sometimes offered me delicious strongly brewed sweet coffee.
Anyway, I'll just take my seat and go back to 'listening' probably.
