I've got Raw, can't believe you didn't like "Gone Up" or "Ambi Get

If you liked "House Call" on ARAE, check out the "House Call" remix
CD -- I just picked it up today.  It got 6 different version, 'cludin' 
deh 12" extended-mix that yuh usually hear blammin' in deh clubs, as
well as a Ragga Mix & Ragga Dub.

Anybody got a complete list of Shabba albums?  I scanned a few in the
stores today I hadn't seen before...but they are probably earlier cuts?

Someone suggested recently that the responses to the roll call should be
saved. I agree, in fact it would be useful to have a directory of
caribbean readers (probably accessible as an FAQ file). Sorry I can't volunteer
to compile and/or maintain the file (as I said before not all the postings
reach my site - I usually have to log in to my Maryland account to read
the group), but I think its an idea that should be pursued further. It does
not have to be an elaborate venture: just supply name, and country of
origin and any other details that a reader may wish to contribute.
So, anyone willing to take this on (the person who suggested this did say that
they were saving the names - this can be a start.) I'll be willing to
help anyone who is interested in compiling and maintaining the directory.
Contact me by email.

   I take it, Burnham belonged to this party. What party (if any was Walter
Rodney affiliated with prior to his assassination? Was Hoyte any better?
I know Guyana has not been doing too well economically, so I'm 
assuming that it was a fundemental part of the platforms put forth.
What sort of proposals; economically/politically; have been presented
by the candidates? BTW, wasn't the election today? Who won?!!

   Where are all the Guyanese on the net? Ah Gone!

Date: Thu, 1 Oct 1992 19:17:37 GMT

Polls are supposed to tell what the people feel; but they also create a
bandwagon where one may not have existed or they can keep one going and
perhaps growing! In Guyana the political low found more depth when some key
polls were found in DIRE  STAITS - as far as honesty was concerned. While 
economic crookishness cannot be ruled out, when you see the losers as being
a multi-racial democracy and any forces that subscribe to it, then one can
safely suspect political crookery....

Randomn sampling was only paid lip service when areas that were perceived to
be unfavourable to the armpits of the two old forces were not properly
counted. Here is how one was done!!! In the multiracial Buxton/Ananndale 
area, 50 questionaries were reported by the pollsters to have been distributed
in BUXTON ; only ONE was found and these opinion makers did not even return
to pick up their papers!!!! Then they (in this and other areas ) started
asking people who they are going to vote for ...... without PROPER
IDENTIFICATION ..... IN A COUNTRY THAT SUFFERED FROM 30 YEARS OF BRUTALITY.
People remember cases when the display of true loyalty netted rigorous
punishment from the dictators ( Uganda in the dying days of Amin is a grim
reminder of never talk to strangers when his boss is nervous!). Most of the
people did not reply or avoided one altogether. These people Know that the
outgoing illegal government has been making sinister contingency plans for
some time now. Many people know that the other old force has stooped to
intimidation to protect its '' TERRITORY''. Last year I experienced this
politics of this old force. It is known that the HIGH COMMAND of this old
force tacitly condones these acts- as they have done in the past.

Unfortunately the polls were read by many in these parts as the GOSPEL TRUTH
because the so-called independent STABROEK NEWS trumpetd the news (favourable
as it was to their old force patrons); and the New York Times glibly
trumpeted the dentist as the next president. Those in these parts who took
this tainted data as fact should ask if this is not power at any price!!!
Are we then replacing the decadent government with more of the same from the
other old force????

Stay tuned for more election news. Poll is still on Oct 5,1992.
