Then your admonishment is a post late. Besides the post's racist intent,
I wasn't aware that "Floriduh" was the well-mannered name for that
southern state.

The post was not intended to be racist, but reflective of the
inspiration for the racist fee. It was black Bahamian politicians who
fought for the outrageous fees...and their rationale for the fees have
been well documented in newspapers at the time of the Bahamian debate.
Check it out...unless you believe we "owe" them.

And about Floriduh, well Floriduh is Floriduh, and West is best, IMO.
Your mileage may differ.

Now, if you believe the Bahamian cruising fee of $300 is justified or
that Floriduh is not Floriduh, make you case. I'll then make mine and
we'll see where the chips fall.
