One would think the rest of Latin America would have it's antennae up after China's royal screwing over of Mexico. Then again, Vicente's still kissing their butts (because he sees them crushing us down the line?).
Please let us know if anything relevant comes out of this conference. You're a far braver person than I am, putting up with all that tedious rhetoric and guile.

After day 2 of the seminar, it appears that the rest of the LATAM speakers as well as US representitives are very amare of China. They are not buying the line either.
The discussions were mostly on economics and finance matters - I really get into that stuff - and was quite ate home listening. Happily, there was very little political; Blather/rhetoric - except when Mel Martinez (R-FL, Senate) conducted a 30 minute VTC speach. He couldn't be there as he was voting on somethin in the Senate. After the first 5 minutes, I completely zoned out. But from the response of the crowd, he said the right things - 50/50 Political policy change/economic policy change.
