Re: response #9596
I appreciate your input to the Native American discussion. There is a thread about the Makah tribe who were allowed to ceremonially kill and eat a whale. That part of it seems to be a dead issue but the thread has progressed into a full scale disscussion on peoples' opinions regarding Native Americans regardless of tribal affiliations. If somebody wants to start a thread expressly for this purpose, count me in.
BTW, I seem to remember that you are the one who emigrated from either New York or southern California to the Houston area in Texas. In the densely populated areas, such as inside the 610 loop ,or close to it, you will find it a minor problem to find a native Texan but, I can assure you that they abound in the suburbs, small towns and rural areas. I may not have been born in Texas but, neither was Sam Houston and all the others of his time, but have lived here since early 1942, so I am very close to being a native. I'm wondering why all these people have left their native habitats and moved here. As if I didn't know. Follow the money ! I was amused by a number of bumper stickers that said " the last on to leave Michigan,turn out the lights". Anyhoo, we are neighbors and, since you have shown yourself to be a gentleman, you are welcome.
