@Bushie,

BAFBFP? How about the famous plantation and rum man from St.Lucy, if the allegations are true, chances are that MANY in BIM have the same great-grandfather!! Lol

Bush Tea and MME

I have just read Tony Almeida’s post. I am not sure what point he was making but his maths does raise some interesting thoughts. Given that the population in the past was nowhere near his figure, it suggest one thing to me: there has to have been a enormous amount of inbreeding. Almeida’s model would be correct if none of a person’s antecedents shared any common parentage but as we know “cousins make dozens”. In fact, the disparity between Almeida’s figure and reality suggests to me that breeding between family members had to be the norm rather than the exception. In fact if for most of recorded human history, distance and geography provided barriers to interaction between groups of humans, does this further suggests that some males had almost exclusive right to procreate at the expense of other males? It is a wonder that genetic diseases and homosexuality among males is not thus more prevalent. Further, are the present day concepts of what constitute “good” family and sexual behaviours of a very recent occurrence? In a small place like Barbados, all of us (Black, White and all other shades in between) have to be related to each other and more closely than some of us may be comfortable with.

David, this is really serious (stating the obvious), but this has the capacity to destroy Japan’s lead as an industrial nation and even shut the country down…..

It will impact Japan people firstly, the sea nearbuy and other nations secondly, Japan’s production thirdly and the international supply of parts and goods fourthly, leading to reduced production elsewhere until an alternate parts sourcing can be developed.

When your Corolla or Mazda break down now, where are you going to get parts? Even the US is curtailing production, through lack of parts needed from Japan.

If the radiation spreads, those factories in Japan will not only be shut temporarily, but permanently.

Serious as ‘whuh’.

@David, true dat!

I was thinking the same thing for the past week. The nonsense with which minds are now embroiled has eclipsed two landmark issues in the Middle East and Japan, both of which will have an impact on us, indirectly. Further, as I stated, the Middle East ‘thought’ process has a direct impact on us, to wit, the OECD attitude towards sovereignty.

The Japan issue will now exacerbate the energy crisis, as to potential alternatives for energy and bring further questions as to our consumption and lifestyle priorities.

But, you and me is only little people, caught up in a great big web.

Again, my only caveat ‘man can plan and act, but the end result is always at the choice of the Almighty’.

Have a good day, going now to earn a dollar.
