By Tom Robbins"Costa Rica is downstairs from Mexico. With your mother's help, you can locate it in Volume C of that old encyclopedia that used to provide your bedtime stories. What the map won't tell you is that Costa Rica has done more to preserve its natural environment than any country on Earth, and that it has no army. No navy. No air force. It's hard to believe, isn't it, that any modern government could be that enlightened or any modern population that civilized? Since their government also guarantees free health care, and since it's reasonable to assume they aren't tying their shoes too tight down there, Madeline's business prospects may be limited, but, hey,it's personal freedom not hundred dollar bills that lights the soul's cigar, and I hope they're teaching you that in kindergarten."
