Harry have you apologized to your wife yet? You really should be proud of
her, the world needs good social workers, and there is nothing to be
embarrassed about.

I beg your pardon Joe. Being a full blood Cherokee, I take pride in the

fact

that my people are "Native" to this land. After all, there is no

definitive

proof that my people ever came from any other location on this or any

other

planet.


There's plenty of evidence that the Indians migrated from Asia.
You can choose to believe it, or not.



And your relatives migrated to here from...where was it,
again...ahhh...Uranus. Right, Joe?

Except for Yale, New Haven does not have much to offer, it looks like the
majority of the town is ready for urban renewal.

Historical interruption to Kerry debate:

Everybody put to death in Topsfield and Essex County was innocent.

Christian faith. Others were terrorized into false confessions.

practicing

natural healing, revering natural order, and being in league with

My ggggg....grandfather, Zaccheus, was one of the original stakeholders

Topsfield. Mary Estey, Rebecca Nurse, and Sarah Cloyce (the Towne

are

all great aunts.

If you wanted to see the devil at work in 1692, you didn't have to look

farther than Inquisitor Hawthorne and his gang of religious zealot
thugs.
Maleus Malificarum indeed. What a crock. Hell of a tragic way to settle

some

festering community disputes as well as squabbles over church doctrine
and

real

estate boundaries.




My relatives were smarter. They immigrated to New Haven, Conn. In the
mid
1600's. Avoided that burning stench.

Hmmm. I was born in New Haven and spent the first 18 years of my life
there. I did encounter a few pasty-faced, no-necked banjo players...must
have been your relatives, eh?

I believe there is something to the claim of moldy rye that started it but,
once it got going I believe some used it as an excuse to do some land
grabbing.

All of my family, from the 1800's forward, have been born and raised

I see that you are new to this land. Welcome.

I bet you are newer.

Some of us came over on the first boat and others a few years later. One
side of the family had a problem in Salem, Mass. a few years ago and they
moved north.

What boat did you come over on?

Oh boy. Socialist newspapers are somehow connected with linguistic
and
culinary variety? Are you talking about a publication like Conde
Nast
Traveller?

No.
I am talking about the fact that you mentioned that without regional
cuisine
and music this country would be boring.
That's not true.
But it is constantly put forth by the common rags that *diversity*
is
a
requirement, that *we* are all better for it.
Bull****.

Where did you ancestors come here from?

All of my family, from the 1800's forward, have been born and raised in
the
US.
How is this relevent to anything?

Well, your comment about diversity probably doesn't come from ideas or
feelings which exist in a vacuum, right?

I keep seeing where diversity is a good thing, but I have yet to see a
reason why.
Can you say why diversity is a good thing?

Without diversity, you wouldn't be here, unless you are 100% Native
American.

Define *diversity*.

Well, every human being migrated from somewhere, at some time. So, I
guess, using YOUR way of non-thinking, every single human being is
African.

I love it! No matter what anybody says about anything, you'll chime in
about how smart you and your family are! I've proven you wrong on
several occasions, so that must make me genius.
