How regrettable. I really anticipated he'd (or she'd) make a good contributor to the forum. But Charles was very clear -- repeatedly.

Ironic, too: "thechileanobserver" seemed to be a proponent of property rights (por lo poco que leí on his website) but ignored the oft-repeated rules of the owner of this website.

I, too. ¿Intentaste por email? ¿Y en castellaño?

Not much help, but I think that the "Puelches" are -- or were -- a tribe of Indians. Actually, I thought that they were among the natives of Argentina. Perhaps the name is applied to a wind from Argentina?

We haven't had any posts from or about Futa today................is all ok there?

It's what day? Not sure, but maybe May 21st. 2:30 am. We've been without phone or internet, and periodically without electric. From 1:00 am to now, we've felt some very significant jolts, just now, a big one at 2:30 am. Aside from the foot and a half of snow, then rain, freezing rain and more snow....it's fine here! Rubber boots are in order and a good sense of humor helps too!

Hey Helen! Boy, I missed a few days, huh?!?!?! I woke this morning to a light, very light dusting of ash, so I wasn't sure if the jumps we felt were quakes, or the volcano blowing. It's nice to be hooked back up to the living though. Looks like we didn't miss much though!
