The fund was started by one of the owners of the Bare Necessities Travel Agency. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> That's why I wander and follow La Vie Dansante, that's all I want, La Vie Dansante (JB)

The employees at Club 0 know how much is in the fund....if that doesn't do it in the end they have to answer to the higher authority <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

So what numbers you see now are just wild speculation ( in my opinion of going through a hurricane in the Caribbean). I have noticed that some that are not even on island and have not seen damages that have happen to their interests on island are asking for money. Wendell
