Re: R2E2 means…

Tiburon is right about the treatment of your fruits in Guam. Years back I went to the US during September and helped ourselves to sacks of apples from the orchards of New Jersey. Upon transiting Guam my apples were taken and brought to the special dumpster. I was resentful since it took us a day to pick those apples in New Jersey. But years later when I was stationed in Andersen AFB Guam I had the collateral duty of a customs inspector. I did exactly what they had done to me when outside fruits are brought in. Guam had dreadful lessons from foreign invaders that had devastated its animal and agriculture. The Philippine brown snake got into the island and had made several bird species extinct.

Ms. Cardelli, hopefully you will understand where Gumanians are coming from to protect their little island paradise.
