	Gods Graves Glyphs	An unusual modern history ping. It has been pointed out that, despite claims by a few people including BC's baby sister that he escaped and lived under an assumed name in the US, the letters from Butch *all* antedate the events in Bolivia. To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list. GGG managers are SunkenCiv, StayAt HomeMother, and Ernest_at_the_Beach

Interesting. Thanks for the post.

Hey, if latinos can’t come to the U.S. illegally and make money, then they might as well stay home and make money off dead Americans. I wonder if the relatives of these two characters know about this? They should complain about it or at least move the bodies back to the U.S. and make money off them up here.....morbid sense of humor I have today, I guess.

I think that was the town they did a Discovery channel special on, because two North Americans were buried there. Turns out the one wasn’t Sundance for sure, and “Cassidy” was most likely not Butch, either.

Ok it has been a long time ago and I was fairly young but we used to spend time around the feed and hardware store (yes the small South Dakota town still had one). There was this cowboy who claimed to have ridden with Butch and Sundance. He said they did not die in Bolivia but did indeed rob the mine and came back to live long and quite prosperous lives. One in New York and the other in San Fransisco(forget which was which). I always kinda hoped they did. But of course if they didn't you live by the gun you probably will die by the gun.

Butch Cassidy: Hey, wait a minute.
Sundance Kid: What?
Butch Cassidy: You didn't see Lefors out there, did you?
Sundance Kid: Lefors? No.
Butch Cassidy: Oh, good. For a moment there I thought we were in trouble.
