Re: Basque

Luis,

I had no idea Spain was working towards these "autonomous" regions... under Deng
Xiaoping, China copied the Hong Kong model in 12 places in China they call
"Special
Economic Zones:" or Special Administrative Regions. Within the last year,
seeing the
success of these, India is developing 20 such places in India. So Spain is
heading this
way too?

Hmmmm... should USA create a autonomous region, say Seattle? I like it!
