My apologies DU, I posted incorrectly early this morning mixing up the recent news about detention in Tonga w/ Palau

Posting here in case I left anyone else with wrong information due to my error.

It sure is embarrassing, as I know well they are not the same place.

If that's the first and worst mistake you've made, you have a long way to go to catch up to me.

It was the day Patrick Fitzgerald was appointed to investigate the Plame scandal, and that Will Pitt posted one of his finest articles on the scandal.

I have to constantly edit my posts, especially when I'm jacked up about something! People here are kind and understanding.

.. and college roommate (plus HS friend) spent 3 years in Palau with The Peace Corps.
If not for that, I probably wouldn't know where it was!
Later in life, I went to the Philippines 6 or 7 times. By then, I knew where Palau was.
