There are VERY FEW hunter-gatherer societies on this planet, and remarkably few on the continent of North America. There are no communities of persons proximate to a city, town, or suburb in North America which need to kill to survive. I do not believe they are hunting out of any 'productive', 'sustainable' or 'enjoyable' arguments. Killing is an enjoyable activity? No doubt, the values of the community in which this person is living are different from her own. There is a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in. __________<http://home.golden.net/~samu>__________ ------------------------ Yahoo!
