Alas, I had to discontinue this service.Why is a separate story. Please
no calls at 4am asking me to drop everything and rush to the airport. No requests to issue
money to your friends on the condition that you reimburse me later. I've been screwed more
than once, but eventually got the message that half of you out there are plain assholes.
Would someone please explain me why all of the offenders happened to be
US citizens?!
But for my permanent clients I always endeavour to remain on-line and
within phone reach. My growing dislike for humanity in general does not apply to my
permanent clients and business partners acquired before I turned misanthrope, so please
relax.
Speaking of emergencies, I was thinking of compiling a list of troubles that may befall
a foreign traveller venturing into my country. I decided, however, against such an
undertaking in the belief that in the vast majority of cases trouble comes to those who
deserve it, and those who deserve it will stumble somewhere anyway, and issuing warnings
is thus a kill-time on my part. Do not go to wrong places, watch who you talk to and deal
with, and generally adhere to good old Protestant ethic and behaviour patterns - your
civilization greatest achievement - and you'll be fine.
