#Genome analysis connects Picuris #Pueblo people in northern New Mexico to their #Chacoan ancestors. Could the project bolster tribal land rights and serve as a model for partnership between scientists and #Indigenous communities?
'The Picuris’ oral history, cultural practices, and artifacts strongly link them to Chaco Canyon. Since approximately 900 C.E., they’ve lived some 275 kilometers to the canyon’s east, in the heart of New Mexico’s Sangre de Cristo mountains. The Picuris used to be among the largest Pueblos but are now the smallest, and they’re routinely excluded from discussions about policies surrounding Chaco Canyon.'
If one is afraid of intimacy yet afraid of being alone, even a stand-alone (not networked) computer offers an apparent solution. Interactive and reactive, the computer offers the illusion of companionship without the demands of friendship. One can be a loner yet never be alone.

Our obsessions with history and prophecy perhaps reflect an inability to comprehend the implications of geological time....Past and future require certain limitations and symmetries to be meaningful -- there must be a plot or at least a story. But time is really not much like a story. It is more like an ocean current that rises from imperfectly perceived depths and flows into unseen distances.

We live in a nation where the winner of the most powerful office in the land may have been decided by a lousy user interface. So, if typical Americans have trouble choosing the right options on a butterfly ballot -- a sheet of paper with four arrows on the left, four arrows on the right and eight holes in the middle -- how can they be expected to figure out today's computers, Web sites and portable gadgets?

The truth unquestionably is, that the only path to a subversion of the republican system of the Country is, by flattering the prejudices of the people, and exciting their jealousies and apprehensions, to throw affairs into confusion, and bring on civil commotion. Tired at length of anarchy, or want of government, they may take shelter in the arms of monarchy for repose and security.
