Here is a small tidbit of the Iriquois based beliefs..

Pretty cool this existed so long ago by what were considered Savages!!

"Many Native American tribes or nations formed loose defensive confederations which held together briefly or for a long time. The Iroquois, a confederation of first five and then six Native American nations in the northeastern United States, however, formed what was an anomalous confederation that would form much of the basis for the American invention of government. This was a powerful confederation of sovereign nations held together by a constitution that based itself on the structure of the confederation and its decision-making apparatus rather than on the charisma or power of individuals. This would then become the model that the framers of the Consitution would turn to in designing a nation that was, in theory, a set of sovereign nations: the United States. "

 

I missed the game - two of the guys that work for me have a bet going and the one now needs them to win the last 2 games to win the bet. If they do they will match the wins for last year. Hope the playoffs go better this year - they are on quite a streak!

I'm in the South Hills - you anywhere close? Maybe we can meet-up at a local coin show sometime!

 

LOL - wouldn't the wife be surprised - we could have a great card game and talk coins all night!

 

you got that right. The native folks of this land lived together for a long time without trashign the place. crimey .. it didnt take us very long at all... I have read stories on the advanced 'politics' of the indian tribes. When i was living in Massachussets, where a bunch of Indian tribes once dwelled, Indian culture and history was always close by ...

Bonus Question

The Golden Ratio or phi, is called the most perfect number in all mathamatics. It is equal to the square root of 5 plus 1 divided by 2, or 1.618033988749895.......The golden ratio is an irrational number, meaning it can't be written as a fraction! However, one way to get close approxamation of phi is by dividing two consecutive numbers in a simple sequence called the Fibonacci series.

According to Ken McGrath the golden ratio is found in two different forms on the back of the 1 dollar bill. What are they??

There it is... Good luck guy's!!
