Not sure if anyone is interested but I think this might be a very good program. Tonight on PBS from 9 to 11 PM American Experience is doing a Anthology Documentary on Fidel Castro. This should be quite interesting to watch. :smt045 It tells which I didn't realize that in 1958 or 1959 not sure off hand the year he went into the mountains with only 18 men to start the revolution against Batista. Once he took power as we know he took over all the business and property for the government from individuals including his own family. Also they say that originally he had promised to step down as leader/dictator after one year. Hmmm sure seems like a pretty long one year to me...what's it turned into something more like 45 or so?
