  The Tainos: Caribbean Amerindian Centrelink
We are a FREE community of people with a leadership that is not beyond reproach.
The claim that all Native Caribbeans succumbed to war, slavery and disease, that they in fact became "extinct" as peoples and cultures by the 1600s, has been asserted as truth by governments and academics for over a hundred years.

  VOLCANIC TSUNAMI GENERATING SOURCE MECHANISMS IN THE EASTERN CARIBBEAN REGION - Dr. George Pararas-Carayannis
Convergent, compressional and collisional tectonic activity caused primarily from the eastward movement of the Caribbean Plate in relation to the North American and South American Plates, is responsible for zones of subduction in the region, the formation of island arcs and the evolution of particular volcanic centers on the overlying plate.
Seismic events in the Eastern Caribbean are principally associated with a subduction zone along a north-south line just east of the main island arc where the North American Plate dips from east to west beneath the Caribbean Plate.
Caribbean volcanoes and their associated flank failures can be forecasted with careful monitoring and programs of preparedness need to be established.

 Major Religions Ranked by Size
Many Far Eastern ways of thought, in fact, were given the status of "world religion" while equally advanced religious cultures in technologically less developed or pre-literate societies (such as in Australia, Africa, South America, and Polynesia) were grouped together as pagans or "animists," regardless of their actual theology.
This list is based primarily on the degree of doctrinal/theological similarity among all the various sub-groups which belong to these classifications, and to a lesser extent based on diversity in practice, ritual and organization.
People who specify atheism as their religious preference actually make up less than one-half of one percent of the population in many countries where much large numbers claim no religious preference, such as the United States (13.2% nonreligious according to ARIS study of 2001) and Australia (15% nonreligious).

 Eastern Arc Mountains Forests of Tanzania - UNESCO World Heritage Centre
The term ‘Eastern Arc’ was introduced in 1985 to describe the forest-capped ancient crystalline mountains of eastern Tanzania and south-east Kenya, which are under the influence of the Indian Ocean climatic regime, and therefore contain predictable local climates (Lovett 1985).
The Eastern Arc Mountains are also a Global 200 Ecoregion of WWF (Olson and Dinerstein 1998), part of a biodiversity hotspot of Conservation International (Mittermeier et al., 1998; 2004) and an Endemic Bird Area of BirdLife International (ICBP 1992; Stattersfield et al., 1998).
In most Eastern Arc mountains the local populations respect the reserve boundaries (where they are clear), but forest resources are used locally for fuel and building materials and some forests are heavily degraded.

 Fodor's Travel Guides | Forums Messages | Caribbean Cruise
However, my idea is to visit beautiful (and relatively well-preserved) colonial towns/cities and if or when I get tired of that, I could easily lie down on some exotic beach, drink a pina colada, listen to the music and savor the nature.
Right now, my first step is to research some of the Caribbean's sightseeing/colonial architecture destinations and then I would try to pick a cruise ship that hits my desired spots (or rent a boat).
More than likely people are not responding since this is not the cruise forum.
