You know that was an honest count not like those precincts in Philly.

The land is tree less, hilly and quite windy. Trees once upon a time grew there and they have a small stand of Sitka spruce which was introduced and carefully tended by a sheep rancher in Hill Cove. The Falklands are known for their excellent quality of soft wool.As far as reforestation goes Seems that sheep gaze so closely seedlings didn’t have much of a chance to grow. Like Scotland the terrain is moorish and peat is pleantifull. Probably would be a good place to start a brewery because the ground water is similar.

Well, that's a bitchslap to Argentina. Keep your cotton-pickin' hands off the Falklands, Cristina Peron.

It will be interesting to see whether the Beezle admin. recognizes the ‘will of the people’ concerning the Falklands.
They’ve been wish-washy til now, IIRC.

I’ll bet they side w/ Argentina or at least stay noncommittal.

You can bet your bottom peso that the UN will vote...probably soon...on this and the vote will be 155 to 10 in favor of the Banana Republic of Argentina.They say there's a lot of oil in those waters and if that proves true Argentina *will* seize the islands again.And this time,a dramatically weakened Britain will know that there's nothing they can do about it.
