Buzz kill really? It is an issue and the people that live in SXM know this . They are the ones breathing this toxic air every day. I work in the medical field and I am aware of the harm it can cause. Some people on this forum feel SXM is utopia and they are blind to the problems this island has. Once the dump issue gets out to the US and Canada things will change. TTOL will not be able to get the message out, it's just a small handful of people. There are many forums and news alerts that eventually will reach home and no one will want to take the chance of going to an island where one cannot breath fresh air with a burning dump that no one knows how to control it. I love SXM but something has to be done to correct all of the problems that are existing now or there will be no tourists, there are too many other islands to visit.
