Dave...

I found your 2004 posting from Sant Cruz. Yes, that's the trip I was
referring to. The other person who reported his experience was livid
about how things turned out. IIRC, they were caught up somehow in the
political situation during the trip. I also think their hotel and
perhaps travel reservations were mishandled. Do you recall who posted
that back then?

That posting was part of why I decided to go to Chile. I have an
astronomy friend who went on the SSSP, either the year before or after
you did. His was a good experience, but the political stability of
Chile seemed significantly safer to me than Bolivia or other choices in
South America. I had a wonderful experience in Chile.
