Hahahaaa. Nothing like a little flame to ignite a thread.

Yes, those ARE SOME of the things I am interested in. I wrote that in 2003 when I joined this board and really haven't thought about that line in my profile since.

That line in my profile doesn't mention plenty of my interests...

I have a great respect for voyaging traditions. Without the greatest sailors the world has ever known, Polynesian traditions would have never spread throughout the Pacific. I have been to all 3 corners and a few spots in the middle of the South Pacific as well as all of the Hawaiian islands. This is actually a really thrilling discovery for those of us that follow the actual science of it all.

It's a very cool find! I haven't read the articles yet, but I'm going to. I certainly believe the polynesians frequently traveled back and forth between the islands; not saying it was easy or without danger, risky, etc.

Very neat to have scientific evidence tracing the route that settlement may have occurred throughout the islands or signs of trading activity.

Also - I think TikiDavid may just have been kidding. "Snap-On" - get it? Snap-On tools! Haha! That is pretty funny. :lol:
