nope, go look at the Thai embassy site - ALL tourists need to pay the $25
since 26AUG2003
(like I said - shoot themselves in the foot)

You read it wrong. That is for a tourist visa. Americans (among many
others) don't need a tourist visa. I arrived in Thailand a little over
a week ago. No fee.

Sure is $25 US since 26AUG2003 for a tourist visa. Hope they get the
message that they won't get my money.

But you're a US passport-holder, right? Do you need a visa? According to
the
Thai embassy web page you do not.

yes, we've been down this road - the "entry permit" good for 30 days is
FREE; the "visa" isn't - and there is a list of countries eligible for
tourist entry without a "visa".
