It is these throwbacks that lend Havana, the country's capital, an undeniable charm.

Yeah, its the same charm that North Korea has -- the charm of a country that is so poor and economically retarded by Communism that they have not advanced in decades and are living off the past. The CNN news team that reported this are a bunch of either ideologues or idiots, or both.

When I was still in the reserves (early 90s), there was an aviator in my reserve group who worked for CNN as a journalist during the week. He was a very nice man and a favorite son, golden haired boy.He was assigned to do a story on Rhodesia for CNN. Being a recent college graduate and maybe a journalism major, he knew nothing about the history of the anti-apartheid struggle And the former glory of the country he was in. He remark constantly about how quaint the place was with the British customs. I can imagine the sympathetic stories that would come from his visit there. He honestly did not know.
