>Well, the Pearl of the Antilles is something like 1,000 miles long.

?IOW there's plenty of space to develop regional accents.

It should be noted that most Hispanics believe Cubans are not Hispanic at all. 
"Alberto's not Hispanic -- he's Cuban!" we've heard many times over the years

We had a physician who was a member of Christ Church Bay Ridge whose great 
grandparents were Cuban Refugees.His family had lived in Cuba for more than 300 
years. How would a 65-year old man have great grandparents who were Cuban 
Refugees?

They fled in 1898 back to Spain.

Nothing new under the sun . . .

Cheers,
Jim
