Many of the skeletons bore signs of violent hacking, tearing, and impalement with iron weapons.

Undoubtedly these people were much comforted in their final thoughts that at least they weren't gunshot victims...

New York Senator Chuck Schumer stated that this horrible tragedy should serve as a warning, and reinforce the importance of banning the ownership of all guns by civilians.

I love the dichotomy between the coverages of Nat'l Geo magazine vs. the Nat'l Geo channel.

The former is increasingly about hard-Green envirowhacko or (in the columns) effete Metrosexual topics. The validity Global Warming is just an assumed given. Typical articles: "Bitter Times for the Polar Bear" or "Why I Love My Prius More Than Sex".

The latter usually has such highbrow offerings as "UFOs: What Does The Government Really Know?" or "Snake Attack!"

an Inca Indian killed by a musket-wielding Spaniard nearly 500 years ago in Peru, scientists announced today. (See pictures and watch video.)

Wow! Who knew they had video back then?
