Some Good News

According to Bolivia's best newspaper, _La Razon_, the Peruvian economy
grew about 10% this year. This is great, especially because this growth
isn't concentrated in minerals and other commodities.

Certainly, Peru _seems_ to be growing like crazy, although the growth is
very concentrated in the urban areas, especially in Lima. Get out of
Cuzco a couple miles and you're living in the 18th century. Except for
the cell phones. And soccer.
