[QUOTE="charley, post: 24719850, member: 5372"]Lets review that scientific thing. Bison derives from Latin and as I recall, means Ox. Then we are to take the word of the Poser that classified it, and who NEVER saw one nor visited the Bufalo territories (see what I did there?). I think one of his so-called apostles once visited the east coast, but he never saw a bufalo in the roaming territories (see what I did there, again?) or anywhere else. So, who are we going to believe, some Euro wacko from the what...1700s...or the Spanish, Apache, Comanche, French and Swahili language speakers conversing in NA in the 1700s in real time and living off the Bufalo (see what I did there, again?) and saw them daily? A completely unique NA experience that did not happen anywhere else in the World. Next, I want to know how the Poser played Cowboys and Indians when he was a kid..... So, for these reasons among others, I call Baloney. Tell me what that Poser thinks a Boeuf looks like? Truth in editing: added an "i" where appropriate.[/QUOTE]
