Thanks, Sheba for the good idea. Will get on with writing letters tomorrow too. Do you have any idea what the post about the group that bought the Curacao bank that you posted the other day means to the NH investigation? I'm puzzled.

Only what I wrote before, that there are some big guns represented in this (banking) report, and they pack quite a bit of clout. (IMO) They certainly would not want Natalee's case to stay prominent and disrupt their big plans (development) for the area (much better to sweep it under the rug).

When I think about all the business interests and big money represented by this bank purchase and their combined might, (such as putting across their point of view in conversations on the golf course, at consular dinners, at the State dept, at business meetings, etc. with the movers and shakers), then the death of one American tourist seems to not have much chance of generating equal force.

I have another darker thought about the banking industry in the caribbean. It is know for drug money laundering and all kinds of income tax shelters. All perfectly legal of course, uh huh. I wonder how many respectable Americans have some shady money interests in these very caribbean banks where they do not want any spotlight shone to rock the boat? Maybe I am too suspicious. The other thing that interested me about the banking report was the juxtaposition of the names of American politicians and major businessmen with the names of those who had been in the Aruban government.
