That is a deliberate lie as well as a slander on every
Native American.

"And if you don't agree with what he says, you don't
"understand him and are stupid, you European,

Actually, the evidence is what it is. Insulting me is

Actually, Darren, that's creating C14, not
"synthesizing" it, and yes the radio-dating

be released in hyper-velocity impacts.
