A long time ago, in 1990 A.D., Barb & I took a vacation in the Bahamas. It was a nice vacation; I had a good time and wouldn't mind coming back, but it was not quite the PARADISE everyone said it was (of course, maybe I should try out Akron, Ohio... or France). The one question I kept asking myself was:
"Is this the best the world has to offer?"
