Date: Mon, 13 Dec 1999 18:54:55 -0800 From: Manuel Patino <white95r @HOTMAIL.COM> Subject: Re: Tango at see No offense intended to you or anyone else. I just reported what happened to me. It is true and I have no reason to lie. I do not mean that every Bahamian is involved in these scams, nor do I mean that any Bahamian whether born there or an immigrant is in no way less of a person than I or anyone else. I apologize if my choice of language offends you or anyone else but facts are facts. One can get scammed in any number of ways and by any number of people. Some in the list have shared about their experiences with tango cruises and a number of other events. Some of these experiences were less than good. I just wanted to share my "less than good" experience in a "party cruise". It just happened to be in Nassau. I'm sure that the Bahamas are not exempt from having dishonest or opportunistic people just as any other place in the world. Including the Tango scenes in any number of places including the USA and Argentina. Regards, Manuel
