Attempts to find any Fountain of Youth have been unsuccessful. The few proposed sites have led to nothing of consequence. One of the sites has a fantastic pond that glows at night, although this appears to be a natural phenomenon of phosphorescent organisms. The Spanish have always kept an unusual interest in Cuba. Florida as well until we bought the land from them. Have they discovered something of which we are unaware?

Update, I offered to purchase Cuba for $120 million and the Spanish would not come to an agreement. They are obviously hiding that Cuba has more to offer than a strategic military location or profitable tobacco crops.
