I have a suggestion. Sometimes reading the NATIVE-L messages, I'm
rather confused because I don't know what nation is being discussed.
I think it would be a good idea, and an informative exercise, if the
subscribers could post what the native equivalent of their european/
historical names are. For instance, the Navajo are the Dene, the
Cherokee are the Tsalagi. I would use them if I knew them and could
remember them. What do you think?
