[ISL] Four islands links: Hawaii, British Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, Tuanaki


  • Bloomberg describes the FCC report on the Hawaii missile scale earlier this month.

  • The British Virgin Islands are apparently continuing to undergo their recovery from Hurricane Irma, enough to become tourist attractions again. The Guardian reports.

  • Jonathan Levin and Yalixa Rivera look at Bloomberg at the astonishing lack of good data on Puerto Rico's demographics after Hurricane Maria. How many have left? Estimates run all the way up to a half-million departures by the end of 2019.

  • Reddit's unresolvedmysteries shares the story of the supposed Polynesian island of Tuanaki, which went suddenly missing in the 1840s. What happened? Did it ever exist?
