#1 I'm pretty sure that to become a World Heritage Site, all you gotta do is donate $100K to the Kojo Annan college fund.

#3 I haven't spent much time in Jalisco, but stills are everywhere in Colima. Mexicans often scold you for buying Tequila from liquor stores. Locals like to drink it while eating salted sugar beets, doused with lemon juice. I like it with a squirt of lemon and Grenadine.

#4 On the down side, it's illegal to remove any plants from a World Heritage site.

#5 Agave is everywhere on the Pacific Coast. It doesn't require cultivation.

#9 Good point, SM. Very well stated. As long as they "work" on it from Guadalajara or Brussels, not NYC.
