    I'll admit right off the bat that I'm not familiar with the source - though I'm pretty sure they're not commondreams.

    Anyone with more info care to offer their takes on this?

    I don't think Segroves is Navajo.

    ...on or about February 23 or 24, 2004, there was a leak in the roof of the Yale Street warehouse in Albuquerque, New Mexico – where an estimated 100 pallets (each containing 50 boxes) of trustrecords were housed. According to the OTR Letter, “[o]ne of these pallets is right under a leak from the roof. The whole pallet gets wet from the top down. . . . One of the inside walls, which is concrete, looks like a mini water fall.”

    ...Abeita further notes that the wet boxes in the leaking warehouse were moved to a warehouse that stores agricultural products...that boxes of documents brought in from the field (during an unidentified time period) contain mold and will remain so while OTR “search[es] for a suitable contractor” to clean them...and that boxes containing mouse droppings remain uncleaned because OTR is still trying to “locat[e] a suitable contractor” to rectify what it now claims are “newly found boxes.”

    ...The Court is thus confronted with two independent sources confirming that boxes containing individual Indian trust records sustained water damage from a leaking roof, and several hundred boxes of records are contaminated with mold...


    This is a 2004 civil action documenting this (12 May 2004). Does anyone wanna bet against this very thing (willfull allowance of KEY document destruction) going on for over a decade...maybe two...maybe forever?

    And what does that makes us? What does that make the nation? What does that say, specifically, about the idea that we think we are enough of what WE need to be at home to offer "democracy" around the world, to anybody fvcking ELSE?

    Please.

    Anyone who wants to know more, I mean really know more about this whole thing - as just one case among MANY - go here, and spend some time.

    How do you ever get any work done on your doctorate? I mean, you have a large number of posts on bs with links to articles all over the place. Do you sleep more than 2 hours a day? Or are you just always on watch, sort of like Batman?

    I'm attaching a study to my work on efforts to produce a doctoral thesis employing only cyberspace. With ingenta and questia and Lexis Nexis Executive, andvarious Sydney and Atlanta databases online (for a fee), as well as innumerable uni sources (like Business Source Elite, SportDiscus, etc, which often offer full text instead of just abstracts), I'm getting mad work done, with multiple windows open...multitasking,and my Alienware laptop is up to the task.

    So in the course of all that, I work on the 20-10 method; 20 minutes of intense work, 10 minutes of fvckin' around, often on BS. But I also sleep very little, and yes...I am Batman.

    I'm trying to get to the 20-10 method as I work on my paper about The International Finance and Trade Regimes: Evidence of Systematic Discrimination Against the Interests of Less Developed Economies? However, being a lowly masters student as opposed to a doctoral candidate, my skill set is nowhere near that of the 20-10. I'd say I'm about at 10-25 or 10-30.

    On topic: I wish I had a good headress and moccasins. I think I might need to make a trip to Ardmore over X-mas break and do some trading with the redman.

    Don't be silly. Check the labels on the inside. Made in China. Why do you think this trading post is still in business?

    No one has yet blamed the Jews for this? Finally our shadow ops team is doing a better job of keeping our control over the banks and the government a secret these days.

    Considering that the Injuns got burned on that kind of trade something like 4,000 times over the past 400 years, I think that they're starting to wise up.

    Because doing business with Wal-mart is so wise. You really are a dreamer.

    Depends who you talk to. The Walmart shareholders have been quite happy. I remember someone called me the exact same thing, dreamer, 10 years ago when I started buying things from Walmart, liked it and bought shares thinking I could double my money. Little did I know. You know the story. The stock went on to go up 6 times. Well I was young and naive then. :)

    But that's not the point here. I was only kidding with Mike Seagroves.

    Don't worry. Someone will get around to blaming them on about page 4 or 5.

    Isn't this reverse anti-semitic? Accusing people of being anti-semitic at will, to the point of even before the act.

    With that "mammon" Walmart went on to become the biggest company in the US and one of the biggest employer, not to mention the jobs it has created for all their US suppliers and distributors here in the States.
