Is this stuff in our genes?

perry:
My parents told me when I was in my early teens that they thought I was born 1000 years too late , I told them I thought it was 10 000 years . Living in the city as I do and working a modern existance for a family that doesn't get it I understand where this ithread is coming from all to well .

regards Perry

richpierce:
I think the generosity we share may come from the feeling that we've finally found "our tribe".  In tribal societies, all is done for the good of the tribe- meat, whatever resources or materials found are shared.

Kegan:
It must be. Primitive arhcery only appeals to a person with a romantic's soul, so primitive skills must only appeal to a person with a caveman's blood- right?

Makes sense to me.

But now I gotta go stare at some plants til i cramp up or they get up and run away in fear ;D

huntertrapper:
ill have to try what jamie said, and about thinking "romantic" i can always be happy thinking of an indian 100 of years ago stalking a deer with a longbow and flint tipped arrows and know, i do it now, not so much deer with flint but other game. no better thought.
