Either that or he wrote operettas. ....and actually, 'Indians' were from the Orient and got to the Americas by the Aleutian Bridge. DNA has proven that. So they were interlopers too. PS: I think the Ebonics spelling of 'HONKEY' (sic) is really: 'Honkie' ---not unlike the sound a horn makes. And the archaeology points to the Greeks being here before the Maori, even in their own Maori tradition when they arrived in the North Island they found a fair skinned peoples already here, to cap that the Greeks sent out ships into the Pacific before the birth of Christ and the chief navigator was called Maui	gary67 (56)

Although there has been the occasional talk about changing the flag there has never been any talk about changing the name. But as Bevy says, "Who gives a shitt." Very well put. All this poll has achieved is that the majority don't want to change the name and started a meaningless discussion about something that no one has any control over and will never happen. As I said before, someone has too much time on their hands.	Roscoe (6288)

Be a sad day indeed if anyone proposed topic of discussion had to be filtered through your delusional point of view in regards to worthiness. Tell us again how god stopped the sun to show the unbelievers he was real, and how scientists discovered this really happened. LMFAO. How about instead of objecting to a well supported discussion in a discussion forum you go have a read of snopes, especially before you make your next thread.	Metla (12)

Greeks never got past India. I do believe the Norse (Vikings got to North America though.	prefect (6291)
