Thanks for the flood of mail from everyone. I will try to answer
everyone in this single message.
After sending my message last night, I pulled out the removable
hard drive from our UNIX system and carried it with me, just in
case the building was damaged. Things were a bit too busy after
that to send any messages even if the drive had been in place.
Observers at the park report that tires were burned, wood was piled
under vehicles, and oil had been placed about the building.
However, no real damage was observed.
The staff members who live off compound are not being let in to
work
The duputada(sp?) is giving a speech to the fishermen at the front
gate right now.
We understand there may be more confrontations between the military
and fishermen later today, so we will remain on guard.
All is quiet now.
The Americans now within the compound are Chantal Blanton, Heidi
Snell, and Jim Pinson.
More as soon as I have it.
Thanks for all the help guys!!!
Jim |
