Such a labored, contrived attempt at a putdown.   Barry lived in Sitgis near 
Barcelona.  That is where you leave from to get to the closest, most popular 
tourist Island in the Mediterranean off that coast. As more of a native working 
there he might not have been interested.  But my question was closer to asking 
a resident of Massachusetts if they had ever visited Nantucket Island,knowing 
that he had been there before a long time ago.
