The tourist buses flow as easily as the rain sluices down the colonial cobblestone streets of San Cristobal de las Casas in the center of Chiapas. Meanwhile Mexico's South is vociferously challenging the 2006 presidential election in the streets and attempting to force out a draconian governor in nearby state of Oaxaca for going after the teachers and their union after the thrall of the World Cup in Germany has worn off. So you happen to be renting an apartment in the midst of all this history. May you contemplate the role of the subjunctive mood in the English language while you take Spanish classes every morning amongst the sancristobolenses, hearing the susurrus and tatter of Tzotzil and Tzetzal and other diphthonic and consonantal summersaults as you harbor your English by reading Sesshu Foster's recent novel Atomik Aztex
