Many friends of mine (at least 2 dozen) have traveled freely in Nicaragua over the course of the last two years. I have recenltly helped raise $$ and supplies (mostly medical) for a drive sponsored by Oxfam America which I feel is a model for all aid campaigns. The people of Nicaragua deserve our help, after all it was our government who supported Samoza for 40 years and it was Samoza who created the economic hardship and political repression that brought about revolution in Nicaragua. It's a terrible shame that we in the US know so little about what's really going on in Nicaragua. -- John Macario UUCP: {decvax|linus|cornell}!dartvax!dire CSNET: dire@dartmouth ARPA: dire%dartmouth@csnet-relay US MAIL: 10 TERRACE VIEW Lebanon, NH 03766 "...it's even worse than it appears but it's all right..."
