My sympathies for the organizers!

I know there is plenty of raw talent in DR, that will impress many with their intellectual skills.

Thanks for providing the means for these young people to express themselves; For most people having a computer, and then being able to maintain an internet connection is almost a dream.
You are doing an honarable job! And awarding $1,350, to boot! Chevere!

Now, I hope our Quisqueyan Bloggers don't get bogged down in something I call the "Racial Morass"; Nuestro pueblo es mas que colores, hermanos. Yo soy kaki, como el uniforme de nuestras escuelas, eso es lo que vale. Mi color!
Quisqueya tiene talento!
