Foxy, I still don't understand exactly can 60000 year old Customs, Traditions, Song & Dance & X-ray Art can teach anybody in the Modern World.

You mentioned Footballers, Dance Troupes & Writers, etc. These are not 60000 year old Aboriginal Customs & Traditions. they are Modern Western Arts, Customs & Traditions that Aboriginal people have learnt from the Modern Western World.

My only wish is that the more educated (in a Western Tradition) would take up a more Modern Western Way of life.

They can still hold onto their old Customs & Tradition on Holiday's like we do with Christmas, Easter, Dress up in a Kilt & go to the Highland Games on Burns Day or wear Green for Paddy's Day.

They could get naked & wear Coloured Dirt & Feathers on Aboriginal Day. I'd join them. You could Too. Ay.

Foxy,

I asked if you knew anyone who had the knowledge and intellectual wherewithal to offer a valid critique of my post.

Your following posts seem a long-winded way of answering "No".

In this entire thread no one has offered anything of any value that stone-age societies offer the modern world. That the best attempt was they gave us the word 'Canberra' pretty much summarises it.

I note there's not a word about my posts on the invention of writing and plant domestication.

BTW, lifting entire paragraphs from others work and trying to pretend they're yours is the exact opposite of knowledge and intellectual wherewithal. I won't embarrass you by being more specific.

Foxy,

The chant of Aussie, Aussie Aussie is hardly legendary as it traces its origin to a British football chant of the 1960s.

Is Mise,

Ben Pobjie has already explained that reference.
I only gave a small glimpse. I suggest you read the
entire book. It will make you laugh out loud.

As I did with Pascoe's "Dark Emu."
