Gib,
Your personal history of interracial relationships, especially with regards to your Maori countrymen, should square with your online persona, unless you have something to hide.

I am surely well informed about the Indians, especially the Spanish Contact period and the Mississippian pre-Columbian period of the southeast. I have an old friend who is a leading theorist and archeologist of the Spanish Contact period and who discovered the "Coosa Collapse" of the 1600's.

My ancestors, despite your implication, were not unreasonable in their dealings with the Indians, for the most part. After all, like I said, I am part Indian, as are many "white" Americans. But it is a big country and a very complicated picture.

BTW, How much Maori blood do you have? <grin>
