    Default kids will be kids

    Here's a interesting article I came across about birch bark letters.

    so the definition of a criminal is someone who breaks the law and you want me to believe that somehow more laws make less criminals?

    That's really cool. The birch bark notes bring life to the artifacts they find. Good post!!!

    My late wife and I met some friends of ours in Las Vagas back in '99 and they took us out to some place it the back country and showed us some Indian pictographs. They were really interesting. The thing that got me was how high they were up on the rock wall. It showed how much erosion of the rock that had taken place since the drawings had been put there. It was the red rock area.

    Every time an older person dies, its like burning a full set of encyclopedias that will never be published again. So, if you ever want to learn more of anything, just find a old tradesman and hang out with him and then when he passes on, not the full set will burn, you'll have parts of it to pass on to others.
