Things I can never figure out....

1) why the hell a 6 bottle case of Evian, costs 15 Euros in Orient Bay?
2) does St Maarten have its own ZIP code?
3) is there a way to keep mosquitoes off my bedroom w/o inhaling toxic gases myself?
4) why cows are free to cross the streets?
5) why are there 2 carnivals?
6) why do I need to convince taxi drivers that the fastest way between the airport and Orient Bay is not via Oyster's Pond? (specially considering that the fare is fixed!!!)
7) why are taxis on average bigger then buses?
8) why collective taxis are to the benefit only of taxi drivers and not customers?
9) why people in SXM are not keen in giving directions?
10) why - while walking on front street - would I need a "taxi back to ship"?
11) where can I find information on buses? I mean if I want to go from Point A to Point B, how do I know which Bus to take?
12) why the propane bottle re-seller has an ad on the yellow pages which says: "home delivery" if they don't actually do home delivery?
13) why taxi drivers thing that the traffic problem in SXM is caused by rentals?
14) how many resorts/private condos/villas are they going to build?
15) why european citizens can't sign up in the french town hall of Saint Martin? Isn't that a basic right/duty of being european?
