CORRECTION
 
In a recent report on the mood of the country we quoted this Los Angeles Times portrait of a local woman: "Despite growing despair she senses no critical mass of indignation . . . People are paralyzed and impotent, collectively resigned to the regime’s failures, corruption and stranglehold on all economic levers." In fact, the woman was in Havana, the country she was describing was Cuba. We apologize for any confusion caused by our mistake.
