Hey Roberto!

Glad you're still stirring it up.

I've departed Russian & Finland, took a short detour to Australia, and have found myself in the heart of the Niger Delta in Africa - Warri, Nigeria. Warri was a major slave portal to the New World. Human cargo brought to America by Dutch, Portuguese, and English slave traders. A huge percentage of slaves to the Caribbean and the Low Country of the US were from this region. The foreign slave traders have been replaced by the foreign oil companies, making just a few tribal leaders rich while most of the rest are miserable.

Send me Michael Hartzog's e-mail address. I've been trying to get in touch with him. I saw you posted a comment from him.

Thanks,
Jim Hodges
