A lot of tourists see Atlantis as the "Disney world" of the Bahamas. That mega resort look and feel get's a lot of cliche tourists, but some tourists find their way to the other islands to get away from the typical commercial mega resorts found in New Providence/Nassau. -And yes, we get tourists that get mad and complain to us when it rains.

You briefly mentioned the embassy in Japan. For about a decade, Bahama's ambassador to Japan was actually Sidney Poitier, the world-famous Oscar-winning actor (and sometimes director). He was actually born in Florida, but his family was Bahamian and he was mainly raised in the Bahamas, so he has dual-citizenship.

I was thinking about starting up a learning channel as well. Pitching ideas off the wall here, but my idea was a channel that would explore the relations between two groups of people throughout history. Basically, I would do videos on the historic relations between the Aboriginals of Australia and the Indonesians, or the relationship between the tribes of Japan and the tribes of Korea and China, or the relationship between France and England throughout history. Just throwing shit at a wall here and seeing what sticks. Does anyone think they'd be interested in such a channel idea? I ask because Geography Now is a recent "learning" channel, and I love it, so I thought I could go into more detail about the conflicts of groups that form the nations today.

The Bahamas, known officially as the Commonwealth of The Bahamas, is a country within the Lucayan Archipelago of the West Indies in the Caribbean. It takes up 97% of the Lucayan Archipelago's land area and is home to 88% of the archipelago's population. The archipelagic state consists of fewer than 700 islands, cays, and islets in the Atlantic Ocean, and is located north of Cuba and Hispaniola Island (Haiti and the Dominican Republic), northwest of the Turks and Caicos Islands, southeast of the US state of Florida, and east of the Florida Keys. The capital is Nassau on the island of New Providence. The Royal Bahamas Defence Force describes The Bahamas' territory as encompassing 470,000 km2 (180,000 sq mi) of ocean space.

This is really a great starter get to know a country. For those living in the country of course you know more information and pronunciations. He is quite good to have so much great information. I really love this format. Children can learn much from this and even though it is fast paced it moves in such a way that retention is good. Keep up the good work . We need more of this. Political correctness need not be main point as the truth is most important. Conveyance of the information is most important. Thank you for your contribution to The Bahamas. We could use this to help our own know more abut their country.

”Sometimes you just gotta punch somebody in the face to develop a good friendship with them.” Funny that you should mention that, because it *HAS* happened to me. Once in elementary school, this one kid came up to me with a gang of sixth-graders and started attacking me, so, knowing, who the leader was, I literally punched him in the face, and that was the end of that, his gang broke, and he became my underling. True story.
