Some of the narrative contained in the sentence just does not make any logical sense.<br /><br /> TocamboAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5851163370258594999.post-29257695574188500502012-01-17T16:45:39.320-05:002012-01-17T16:45:39.320-05:00Kudos to whomever noticed the PDF was prepared by ...Kudos to whomever noticed the PDF was prepared by OCB (which runs TV and Radio Martí). <br /><br />How ironic that State Department and AID run and hide whenever information about Gross's activities on their behalf emerges, but Radio Martí scans it and sends it around.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5851163370258594999.post-11196960567462049822012-01-16T21:18:08.540-05:002012-01-16T21:18:08.540-05:00So, Alan Gross was arrested on December 3rd 2009 a...So, Alan Gross was arrested on December 3rd 2009 and they confiscated his iPad?
