Justin -- Great work you're doing.

I edit The Rag Blog and I see you linked to Marion Delgado's dispatch. We are posting original material from Latin America -- especially from Colombia, Honduras and Mexico -- on a regular basis. I couldn't find an email address for you on your site. Send me your address and I'll make sure you get our material in timely fashion.

There are very important things going on in this hemisphere, and whatever we can do to keep people informed is a big plus.

Best,

Thorne Dreyer
