Need IGx collective memory
About 5ish years ago there was a booklet making the rounds written by somebody in the 1800's who spent time in the wild west. The book was about how the native americans slept, their posture, etc... Kinda wacky but just plain excellent reading.
Anyone remember?

Black Elk Speaks, maybe?
One of the downsides of the Internet is that it allows like-minded people to form communities, and sometimes those communities are stupid.

Re: Need IGx collective memory
Is this the same one that talked about how sleeping with your mouth open results in every malady known to man, as well as spiders laying eggs in your esophagus?

Bux you're kinda scaring me. You're not about to flip out like Ted Kaczynski are you? You're running around bare-footed, haven't washed with soap in 18 months to two years, and now you want to know about American Indian folklore. What the fuck happened to you bro?

Re: Need IGx collective memory
Hey after I sent that previous post I got curious about Ted and looked at the Wiki entry on him. Its gotta be cool to do a dissertation on a topic so deep and obscure that your committee doesn't even know what the hell you're doing. It said he had an IQ of 167...what a waste. I'd love to have half that...wait, that's pretty good right?
