banks offer intolorable service and the wait is often hours. Now that Mulege has a major disaster, you are a bright beacon showing the way with
verifyible information.
I have heard other opinions, but I stand behind mine.

Tell us, what was Bruces exchange rate just before the disaster. I have heard it called "criminal"? How about the price of those phone cards? You may
appreciate it Tony, but I assure you there are many, many who don't. I wonder what the vig is going to be on him forwarding the donations for the
disaster relief? If it is anything like his exchange rate 25% is probably not out of the question. No wonder he was hoping for rain.

I have no idea what Bruce charges for his services, I don't think he goes out and twist peoples arm to do business with him,. enough said. As far as
donations he will get them where they are needed, if there was ever a man too honest its Bruce.

Comitan,
I the states, when people drasticly inflate their prices in an emergency it is called price gouging and is a crime. I do realize however that things
like that are more acceptable in Mexico. People still don't like it though. I bet if Bruce posted his rates, more people here might question your
post though.
Hose A, what the el are you talking about? If you are implying what I think you are you owe me an ap
ology.

Bruce's exchange rate just before the disaster. was 10.50
Bruce's rate sense the disaster is 10.50
Bruce's prices on the phone cards is and always has been the face value on the cards.
Bruce has not handled and will not handle any cash donations for flood relief and people like you kingpin are the reason why
Kinkpin I see you live in Chapultipec. so we are going to be Living just down the street when I get settled up there. cant wait to meet you.

Real cheap shot that really missed its mark.
Bruce just shrug your shoulders, consider the source and the silliness of it all during a very traumatic time.

Note to Admin: "flaming" is really counterproductive to some critical issues here. Just a suggestion for exercising editorial privilege.
The issue here is health. In the case of doubt as to official and / or independently verifiable information... can we agree that it might be prudent
to "Eat the fish  at your own risk!!" and don't whine if you get sick by
ignoring well-meant info, whether fact OR rumor. The same goes for meat and poultry locally.
The Town has created a centralized kitchen for Everyone, Mexicans AND American residents... WHY? To keep (potentially) contaminated food out of the
population. They are serving 900+ meals per day.
Many Americans are eating in restaurants, not the community kitchen. Where did that restaurant food come from? When? Was it unfrozen during the
blackout?
People are people - many have their livelihoods interrupted, whether fishing or restaurants. What others do is beyond individual control. We can
control what WE eat, and where, and when. Let the chips/ chunks fall where they may.

you have gone way to far on your posts and it is time some one made an example of people like you . you think you can hide behind the Internet and
slander anyone you want and they cant touch you. well those days are over for you. do your self a big favor and get a lawyer and check into the
slander laws in Mexico. they are quit deferent than in the USA. I know several people that have been fined and deported for less than you have posted
here. I have copied all of your posts and have more than enough witnesses and now I know exactly where you live and who you are thanks to some that
you thought were your friends. I and my Lawyer will be presenting all of this to the judge and the Dept. of Immigration in Ensenada in about a week.
good Luck
Bruce
