While the Cuban government's internet firewall
probably blocks access to Zoom's servers, it
might not block phone calls to Zoom's many
telephone numbers set up to allow people to
participate via audio only. But obviously Arnie
isn't going to violate the laws of his government
to do that. Sometimes some of us in North
America take our freedoms for granted and assume
other global citizens enjoy the same freedoms.

I had correspondence from Anrie Coro last
week. He told me that the Cuban government does
not allow access to Zoom meetings. Our club
(CIDX) has monthly meetings on Zoom and Arnie
gets a complimentary copy of our bulletin each
month. He received the invitation to our
January meeting, but responded saying that he is unable to access Zoom

 That is my hope as well,
Mano! Interestingly, last week VOA reported
the current U.S. administration redesignated
Cuba as a "state sponsor of terrorism" just 9
days before the end of that administration. So
that's an additional hurdle to overcome in
order to get Arnie Coro to come and speak at
the
SWLFest.

My guess is that Arnie is now an octogenarian,
and (as with all of us) time is running out...

I for one would love to welcome Arnie Coro to
the SWL Fest via Zoom. Many years ago, he
facilitated my visit to Radio Havana which was
a memorable one. With the changing political
landscape, we should be able to invite him to the fest in the coming years.
