It is often speculated that the government of Honduras uses legends of a White City in the unexplored region of Mosquitia as a way to bring tourists to Honduras.

The Embarrassment Of Being Helpful
A while ago, in a fit of civic nobility, I signed up with Imperial College to take part in investigations that might help with medical advances. You probably know the sort of thing.
