Yeah, Google NEVER forgets anything. I read some of the articles on Google and the pretty much jibbed with what I wrote 45 years ago. One funny one wanted to call their cannibalism a myth, but then admitted they ate their enemies. He wanted to point out the distinction of eating for food and ritual eating to gain the enemies bravery. LOL

The truth is they were a$$holes and got killed everywhere they went. They were not "noble savages". I can just see them today with their own reservation and a casino on Galveston Island. If you complained about the blackjack dealer, he would eat you.
