The article about Xtul, Yucatán, México is inexact. Possibly the story about that the Process Church was truth in the far past; nowadays, this place it is a private property (I am near friend of the legal owner) and the owner is designing an investment project in order to achieve and manage an eco-archeologist and turistic development, sustainable with environment: beaches, animals, forest and community of Chuburná Puerto. At this date, the place has been cleaned and my familily is in charged to care, while that project it is done. With this investment project, the owner wil try to get finnacial resources to complete this investment and he'll going to propose it mainly to american and canadian investors, due to one of the project's objectives: Build a place for "Baby Boomers" and canadians reired. The total area available for project is around 3 linear kilometers front beach up to 2 or 3 hundreds meters through internal land, including wetland, swamps and "petenes" mayan word that describe a hugh land portion near the ocean whit a complete ecosystem (Birds, mammals, reptiles, fishes, insects, mangles, etc.)

Now, as I recall, Xtul was a place where the 'red tide', a plague of algae, often washed up, the mosquitoes were perpetually bothersome, and there were malaria areas not far off. The members of The Process who went there in 1966 were liucky to have endured only hunger, toil, and psychological pressures and tensions. It was a place on the fringe of civilisation; it was the end of things, even if the actual name 'Xtul' does not (William Sims Bainbridge notwithstanding) mean, literally, 'The end'.

Now it's getting condos and a token bio-reserve. I hope the 'mangles' (whatever they might be) appreciate the fact they can hang onto a patch of woodland.
