Hi All... I know some of you have already seen and commented on this, but I found it via the Latin American lists and wanted to pass it along to the rest of you, who like me, may have missed it. Caryl The translation of the sur list title and comment: "Oscar Becerra answers the article by Christoph Derndorfer (25 times)" "It would be great if the community in Perú would help us participate in this debate which appears to finally be happening."

She was just expecting it no matter what. Of course my opinion will be biased, but at least I am stating it beforehand. Here are my comments to the article and some of the facts I mentioned you during the hours spent with you during your visit, which you have conveniently ignored. It is mostly full of half truths and extrapolations with no hard data to support them, it also has the same lack of understanding of Peruvian reality that is common to many first world visitors who can't see what is before their eyes just because they are so used to seeing other things, remember the Tragedy of the Commons." (...Tiene hasta parte XIX!) Sería excelente que la comunidad en el Perú nos ayude a participar en este debate que por fin parece estar ocurriendo. --Sebastian Silva http://somosazucar.org/ "Te imaginas si te pudieran enseñar sólo a leer pero no a escribir??" _______________________________________________ Lista olpc-Sur olpc-...@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/olpc-sur
