ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
My love and gratitude to Gabriela and Camila for their patience and understanding. Now they find the "tropics" in many spaces I would not have guessed. To Julio, for his love and unconditional support, te doy las gracias. And, of course, to Susana Chvez-Silverman, for daring to mix work and friendship in a most productive way!
