    The idea was to build a railroad across the steaming jungles of Costa Rica linking the country's inland capital at San Jose to its main eastern port at Limon. The 95-mile-long project was aimed at making it quicker to carry coffee -- Costa Rica's principal export -- from the plantations to the port vs. the decades-old system of moving the goods by ox carts plodding over horrid dirt roads.

    Work on the railroad, originally expected to take five or so years, got underway in 1869. The first train rolled out 21 years later.

    "It therefore is useless and pointless, unless it is for share malice and victimisation to arrest and charge a 92-year-old man for such a simple offence. There is nothing morally wrong with this man smoking a spliff; the only thing wrong is that it is still on the law books," said Chevannes.

    Have a Brooklyn, New York Costa Rican couple as friends. The husband when we met fooled me completely into thinking he was Jamaican. His grand-parents were from Trelawny.
