Will tourism wreck or rescue Grenada?

guardian.co.uk: "In September 2004, 150km-an-hour winds flattened 95% of buildings, killing dozens and making thousands homeless.
Jenny Gilchrist, a local woman from the parish of St David's, remembers the devastation which greeted her the morning after the storm hit.
'Our island was destroyed, my house had the roof ripped clean off, it was total devastation,' she says. 'My daughter said to me 'mammy where shall we go?' and I said to her 'we have no place to go' all our clothes and our possessions were ruined. We lived in water in our house for two days before help came.'"
