To Steve Shiflett, #6456
Hello Steve,
here is just a simple remark concerning your message #6392 where you complained about illegal immigrants from Cuba. You are correct that there are illegal Mexicans in the United States; however, there is no such thing as an illegal Cuban in the USA, unless they have been ordered to be deported and they haven't left. According to the laws of the United States under the "Wet foot/Dry foot" policy, once a Cuban National sets foot on US soil they have the immidiate right to petition for residency. Preaching pregudice is not condusive to a democratic society. The less pregudice we have in this country, the more harmonious we can live together.
We wish everyone a happy holiday season!

Dear Roberto,
Thank you for the reply. I see your point of view and I first claim we are all children under God, which says it all. Tolerance should always be extended in any social atmosphere. We do have an immigration problem in America and it is reported everyday and argued in our Congress. The chaos I speak of is more than likely due to failure to have a legal immigration system that works, such as a true immigrant worker program. This would solve many conflicts case closed. I criticize no man or woman for wanting a better life. All I know is that the Country needs to be more unified or it will falter.
On the issue of Mexicans well my Aunt is from Mexico and married into our family and we love her as she should be loved and she would tell you so and my little cousins, case closed. Also, remember I live in Florida so if you think I haven’t dated many girls from Cuban decent well that would be wrong, case closed. And I have rarely dated a girl I wouldn’t marry, so that says enough in itself.
My issue is way to much conflict between cultures in our country and it needs to be addressed. We need to stand as Americans or we will fall. Fair wages for immigrants should also be a top priority. If you combine bad immigration laws with social economic resentment you have have the makings for chaos and to deny the criminal aspect happening in our streets is just flat out wrong. Pay people a fair wage and things always calm down, but big business doesn’t want that, which is the root problem.
Roberto maybe I will see you some time down in Florida, if you like salt water fishing I may someday. On Ukraine culture I have studied much about it (Mainly Cossack element). I look forward to traveling to kremenchuk, hopefully I will find receptive peoples, and I believe I will if I extend a kind hand first.
Sincerely you’re Florida Neighbor,
STEVE SHIFLETT

Dear Steve, (steveshiflett2003@yahoo.com)
Now a days Internet is one good way to discover other ways. Just like you probably did when for the first time discovered, on the Internet, the beautiful city of kremenchuk and its wonderful people.
Migration is as old as human kind! Our ancestor migrated from one place to another. Yours probably did too. And the race is still on, as long as human being will be around. One day our planet will be too small for us, then will be other our new home.
Those illegal Mexicans and Cubans you’re referring as “causing chaos” on your home town, probably are not as illegal as you may think, and for sure most of them are not causing “chaos” as you stated. Those are fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers and sons trying to make a decent living on a new way of life, a life denied in our own country, in the only shot we have at our life time frame, for the sake and well being of our loved ones. Probably as your own ancestors did too when they first came here. And this great country opened its arms for them.
Now it’s your turn to migrate to a wonderful city after your loved one. Maybe not. But if you do, I only hope that wherever you go, people welcome you as yours were welcomed by others before you.
By the way, kremenchuk was the home for many many Cubans no so long ago. For more than 15 years! And there live many of them, fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers, and sons, together with the locals, in harmony, making a living too. So now you know. We are only human, and our planet is our only home, wherever we go. The chaos was already around when humans arrived. There wasn’t any instruction left for the fist ones. We are just making our way through, learning the best possible way as we go along. Just remember that.
kremenchuk is a beautiful city, and its people are wonderful. Have fun in kremenchuk, but learn its history while there, love and respect them, the same way others respect yours.
kremenchuk is my other great home! The other half of my family is there. You see, I am lucky to have many homes, and I hope you may be as lucky too.
Peace.
Roberto (Cuba)
Miami, Florida.

For Mike 6405
Mike, it is best that you contact major airline offices in Kyiv directly. I know that there is a Lufthansa flight via Frankfurt from Kyiv to Miami, as well as a British Airways flight via London, a Delta flight through New York and a KLM flight through Amsterdam. All these companies have offices in Kyiv, as well as at the airport in Boryspil. In my experience, if you purchase tickets directly from the airline in Ukraine, they are usually less expensive. You can also do it online through their web sites.

hi at all from kremenchuk
i lived in kremenchuk until 1995.....and i some times visit my old hometown

I believe my family may originally have come from kremenchuk but left before the first world war to live in London, UK. Our name was Shwachman (not sure of spelling)and wonder whether there is any local knowledge of this family from this time. I would be intrigued to hear anything. Thank you.

Hello, I wuold know - if it is possible - the address of the insitute where there are children that are alone. This summer I and my wife have had at home a child, Myko, age 9 years old, from kremenchuk, but new we don't know his institute's address.
Thank you. Ciao
Giuseppe
