I didn't re-write Ann's post, merely pointed out the obvious-a Columbian
owned restaurant would have Spanish speakers. But, hey, I'll give you that
jab "nobody".

I'm not gathering intelligence. I leave that to idiots like you.

I am however curious as to why this same post is cross posted all over the
usenet and getting slammed by more people than just me. You might want to
go insult some of the other folks that have the same opinion of miss Ann as
I do.

This Bonaire restaurant review has been cross posted all over the Usenet
and some lame-o jumped my case in another group about commenting. Whatever
happened to freedom of speech?

Bottom line...who cares about this lady's restaurant review? Not me.

It's in rec. diving locations because Bonaire is a dive destination.
It's here bc it's the Caribbean. It's not too difficult to figure
out..sorry this post was so stressful for some of you..eat in some
pricey boring hotel for all I care..

Precisely.

Ann's post was loaded with good, useful information.

Yours provided absolutely none, and was no benefit to anyone.

Keep the gripes to yourself unless you have any actual travel
or dive information to offer.

Ann,

Thank you for the restaurant review. When I visit Bonaire I will give
it a try. I found it interesting that the gas station was called Lisa
Gas. One normally doesn't associate gas or service stations as
feminine. But that's just a minor observation. Are there any dishes
that are local to Bonaire? What would one have for breakfast? Lunch? An
on the run snack?
