    Smith,

    Just to clarify, when you say "*they* STILL doing that [[with the pricing]]", are you referring to the folks at 3 Star or are you using this single comment to paint all Jamaicans with single stroke?

    *they* are people other than "us" which can often be other races, economic status, etc.. I think that Smith744 (with his 'chop chop' form of Patois imitation) probably feels HIS "us" includes all Jamaicans when in reality he is just a white (mostly), tourist like the rest of "us". He probably feels offended that he is not given the deference that he deserves in his mind.

    Someday most of "us" will recognize that we are not *they* and will forever be a tourist and thus always considered an "us".
