BF>> Just heard on the news that Scandic Hotels here in Sweden and Norway are
 BF>> bought up by Hilton and now Scandic in Oslo Norway had refused a
 BF>> delegation from Cuba to stay on the hotel. They said that US law applied
 BF>> because the hotel was own by Hilton and they have joined the embargo
 BF>> against Cuba.

 KW> That's the Hilton management's personal choice. Hotel management is
 KW> typically very "old school","good old boy"
network, think of conservative
 KW> balding men in 3-piece suits in executive boardrooms.

 KW> By that token, I shouldn't buy cuban cigars every time I go to Toronto.

 BF>> It's things like this that makes us really wonder what what the heck is
 BF>> going on.
