#2 I had met a young black entrepreneur last year. He was organizing like minded blacks to purchase these farms to develop. He seemed to think of housing not farming. I believe he felt farming was too much work. The Chinese married into Africans so as to have blood in the game. They also were not restricted on the number of children they could have. I have found the children do not have the bond to China as their parents have.

#3 Is there anyone you haven't talked with over the years, Dale, and learnt their life story? Someday I will sit with you over tea and add my little life to your collection.

#4 Tw, ha ha. I have met many thousands of all walks of life. Each has a story to tell and I have a knack of bring out that personal experience. Now that I have been on the Internet I have expanded my contacts all over the world. Just yesterday I talked with an Engineer (at my work) who has traveled the world who now trains young Engineers in environmental related Engineering. Less travel now. Zoom conference calls and on line training. I asked about Russia and he said they are very pro American. The closer you get to Finland they look so American and greatly enjoy conversation with Americans. It is Putin's group(corruption) that they dislike so much there. How long was that conversation? No longer than being at a drive thru say Windy's.

/\ Which tells me you are a listener. 'Keep traveling,' listening, and sharing Dale.

#8 Good example of both mob rule and give a mouse a cookie and he'll want a glass of milk. They did the right thing (if late) and now the mob is thinking to changing laws to legalize theft. And a lot of Americans have learned that vile lesson.
