In the year 2000, I started work at Ave Maria College of the Americas
in Nicaragua. One of my colleagues, Peter Farrands, was working hard to
launch The Nicaraguan Academic
Journal, and we were all encouraged to contribute. Everyone
involved in the editorial process took the issue of quality very
seriously. I understand that some submissions were rejected, and this
article was revised substantially in the light of criticisms put
forward by my friend and colleague, Mike Patzia. I cannot say then that
this article went through the normal academic process of peer-review,
but I personally happen to think it is at least as good as any of my
other academic publications. It appeared in The Nicaraguan Academic Journal,
December 2001, Volume 2, Number 2. The journal's policy was that
articles written in English, such as this one, would be accompanied by
an abstract in Spanish. As far as I know, the Nicaraguan Academic Journal is now
defunct.
I'm grateful to Ileaneth Berrocal and her staff for scanning this for
me.
