  Orchila: Un liquen en la toponimia venezolana
Personalmente he constatado la abundancia de Roccellababingtonii en la Península de Macanao, las costas de Araya, Los Roques, Los Frailes, Mochima Y Bahia de Cata, con poblaciones que se desarrollan tanto en rocas como corteza de árboles y arbustos, otorgándole al sustrato un color gris pardo.

Esta aseveración tampoco llamó la atención: el personaje con cara y armamento de Rambo que custodiaba personalmente a Carmona era Marcelo Sarabia, vinculado con organismos y empresas de seguridad —alguna de ellas franquicia del Mossad—, que solía jactarse de pernoctar en el Bunker de la embajada estadounidense.
Dado que los Estados Unidos suscribieron y apoyan la plena vigencia de la Carta Democrática Interamericana, que condena cualquier ruptura de la legalidad constitucional, es necesario que la transición que está operando actualmente en Venezuela, que comprenden y con la cual simpatizan, conserva las formas constitucionales.
A ese fin consideran indispensable que se logre la aprobación de la Asamblea Nacional a la renuncia del presidente Chávez y que, de haber recurso al Tribunal Supremo, éste también se pronuncie afirmativamente.
