I am glad this issue is settled at least for the time being. It seems to me that he dancing around a lot of issues about the peopling of the Americas though.

The interviewee seems calm, decent and rational. His acceptance of draconian "cultural heritage laws" is hard to understand though, since he has seen first hand the madness of Big Brother.

Thank you for posting this. It's nice to be able to keep up with the ongoing saga of Kennewick Man.

A good interview, but I don't understand his point: We can't silently condone desecration of Indian graves and keep the bones of people's known kin on museum shelves and expect the general populace to see living Native Americans as fellow beings. How do displays of skeletons encourage the view or treatment of individuals as sub-human?
