[Marxism] (fwd from Ambrose Andrews) Update on Cuban access to the Internet

[Les Schaffer <schaffer@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I use the Jabber/XMPP IM system, and I can testify that in the middle of
the (Australian) night, about every second night, a Cuban or two drop in
for a chat.  (so far I've only succesfully engaged them twice as Im
usually asleep).  One from Santiago de Cuba, and one from Granma.
Interesting people.
