Default Re: Ola from Amazonia

Thanks for the welcome,

Interestingly enough there is a big Texas - Amazonas connection. For one the Texans are the number 1 customers for the Peacock Bass fishing trips. And, two Nokia has a factory in Manaus that makes cell phones and is directly tied to Nokia Americas which is based in Dallas. When you fly during fishing season, September through March the planes to Miami always have fishermen from Texas.
