Subject:      MEXICO - big problem !
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"

Folks, excuse the intrusion if your not interested BUT I find this very important to pass around to ANYONE who has any interest in Mexico. Katrina is a Westy owner friend of ours who we met in Tenacatita a few years back. She lives there now, built a house and is teaching English to the Mexicans, originally from around Calgary. If you do not know Tenacatita then you need to ! Please pass this message on to anyone who you think should know about this situation.

"To all my friends and their friends and their friends, on Aug.4th in very early hours the Tenacatita beach has been taken over by state police.Some restaurants palapas have been destroyed,noone is allowed to enter,only to take their personal possesions. The german lady Irene has been evicted from her house,her stuff taken away by a moving company,rest of her stuff throwen out.I put her up in my school building for now. People are camping near the bridge,that is the last point the police allows us to go. The mood is very dark. So far no violence,but people are steaming,they lost their restaurants,their jobs. The media has not been allowed to report.The report which has been made was not allowed to be aired. Only in a states the report has been aired a few times. At this point it is unclear,but it is said that the president of this country has given a go ahead for this. I will inform you all,if you are interested on the development. Take care all, Katerina"
