    @ Enigma - You came on here with a very negative attitude. I told you that early on. Your people skills are lacking. You have trouble relating without being condescending. I can live with that. However, you will NOT delete pictures and destroy the integrity of the threads. Once you post those picts they belong to the forum and you are not allowed to delete them. That will get you permanently banned and the pictures and/or posts will still be restored.

    As I said - probably a cultural language thing - just want to make you aware.

    I don't see how your question set him off...maybe he was having a "sad day in the bush"...?

    That was a quote from a different thread where he went off on some one that hadn't been on the forum for over a year......
    Kinda like waiting for the bully to go it the house, then holler at them behind their back.

    peezo jeets, I'm gone for awhile and missed the fireworks. Why is it that some of these newbies think they are the only ones that ever done anything? It's a big world out there.
    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?

    It was a bit....sometimes in life you have a disagreement. The mature thing to do is move beyond it and be polite.

    Lots of cool items.......don't think he made these posted this time but were a nice job.
    I liked the weapon covered with shark teeth and the harpoon, at least that what I think they were.

    Weren't they from a museum or something?

    I liked the shark teeth ones too...kind of reminded me of those wooden obsidian edged swords the aztecs used. Or I think it was the aztecs. But a similar idea anyhow, and very cool.

    Very interesting information and photographs concerning Australian aboriginal culture, something I know little about. I am always amazed at the skill and knowledge shown by
    so-called "primitive" cultures, cultures who thrived in their environments long before Westerners came. Thank you for posting.
