I have a friend that works with infrastructure issues in Latin America and Mexico... do you know of any blogs about infrastructure in those areas?

There is a conference coming up in Houston focused on Latin American Infrastructure and the company hosting it focuses on Latin America. They have a ranking of the infrastructure stock for all the countries in Latin America...pretty cool! Here is the link http://www.cg-la.com/lalf7
I wanted to reach out to you as I'm casting a new TV show called, "Infrastructure Vigilante" for Original Productions (creators of Deadliest Catch and The Colony to name a few). We are searching nationwide to find a host for a new series on a major cable network. After checking out your site, I am hoping that you can help me spread the word. Perhaps you know someone that would be interested in participating in this project...
This revolutionary new series will expose the dangers of our great country’s dilapidated, failing infrastructures and consequently, advocate for restoration and repair.
Ultimately we are seeking an advocate for all of us – a HOST/Structural Engineering expert or code enforcer who is tenacious and dogged in his pursuits, whose dedication to exposing neglected and decrepit infrastructures is infectious and all-consuming. Candidates must have an engineering background, a deep and ardent passion for this subject, and the fearlessness it will require for him to not only expose the problem, but to then stand face-to-face with the powers-that-be and demand an overhaul. This is a person who will go on late night television and blow the lid off of this whole problem – he will go to war on our behalf. This is his cause.
I would love to speak to you and see if you could help us spread the word for this unique person who has the personality and knowledge to host our show.
Thanks and feel free to call and we can discuss the project in further detail.
