Sorry I didn't get back to you on your last comment, but I have been thinking about it, especially what you said about the function of air sacs, which I hadn't considered before. There's a lot I don't know about what happened prior to the year 000,000 and your contributions in that regard interest me. That's an area I haven't studied at all, unfortunately, so will have to leave it to more knowledgeable people, such as yourself, to explore.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the link to the article on Pygmies and logging in the Ituri Forest, which I hadn't heard about. It's ironic that just at the moment in history when the importance of these Pygmy and Bushmen groups and their traditions is becoming increasingly evident, mostly via the genetic research, their way of life is being systematically destroyed. Actually, though, I think it's the strenous efforts of the missionaries that has always done the most damage, since it goes to the heart of the culture and belief system that sustains it.<BR/><BR/>As the article indicates, the logging companies are at least attempting to come to some sort of compromise with the traditional way of life in the forest. Let's hope they are sincere.DocGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17359004200002936544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2808406058173173703.post-11080123077438490912007-11-10T19:39:00.000-05:002007-11-10T19:39:00.000-05:00the absurd position that Pygmies and other traditi...the absurd position that Pygmies and other traditional peoples face when outside corps take over, leaving a few pocket parks:<BR/>http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/5350F7E3-6CC9-4646-B18D-C7515F570DF5.htm<BR/><BR/>the music is fading, now mostly noise.DDedenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10033851770461086341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2808406058173173703.post-23728911054955009022007-11-06T20:25:00.000-05:002007-11-06T20:25:00.000-05:00Thank you so much for such an interesting website....Thank you so much for such an interesting website.
