Elwyn:

Hey dudes & dudettes,

I just back from the record store and got complimented on my Yo La Tengo t-shirt. :-) I bought Judas Priest's "Turbo" in card sleeve format and Crystal Visions: the Best of Stevie Nicks - it even comes with a DVD of her videos!
  7:21am

Hey there Elwyn!
  7:21am

Good day, Elwyn!
  7:22am

Thanley:

oh cool,thanks!
  7:34am

Dean and Britta sound surprisingly awake for this time of morning (I'm assuming Meghan made them come in before noon).
  7:35am
Meghan:

They had massive jet lag. They had just come back from London....
  7:40am
Elwyn:

I remember "Satisfaction"! I think I watched that for Justine Bateman.
  7:42am
Elwyn:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satisfaction_(film)

I wasn't satisfied.
  7:59am
Elwyn:

Woohoo! Australia!
  8:01am
Meghan:

hehe... there you go Elwyn
  8:13am
jeff p:

not very chatty on here this morning....
  8:14am
Meghan:

Yeah, that is what happens when there is an interview.....
  8:16am
Dave B:

I've been working since about 4:30... Problems over in Moscow, sux bigtime being on call...
  8:17am
Meghan:

Cause of the fires?
  8:18am
Elwyn:

Hey,

I've got a couple of questions about America:
a) Why do different states have different taxes on stuff?
b) Could someone explain to me about Indian reservations.
  8:19am
Dave B:

Not 100% sure. Might be related. Our network over there burped bigtime waking me up... Seems better now.
  8:19am
Chuck:

A) Apart from federal income tax the states control their own taxes in whatever way they see fit.
  8:20am
Meghan:

Elwyn, each state governs itself, so they have say on their taxes, as for Indian Reservations, that could take a long while! We took their land and gave them a horrible little plot.
  8:21am
Chuck:

B)I will need a more specific question in order to answer. I studied Native Americans in college.
  8:24am
Elwyn:

B) wasn't really a specific question.
I was watching the second last episode of "Wonderfalls" and it's set on a reservation.

The Native Americans (guests on the show) were having a disput on how to run their reservation. One of them, a lawyer, wasn't supportive of casinos. Others were supportive.
One of the regular characters had a fraction of Native American heritage and wanted to claim it to get money to pay off her student loans.

How accurate is all that?
  8:25am
Chuck:

Oh, I think I know sort of what you were driving at, Elwyn. Indian reservation are considered autonomous states under the juristiction of the US department of the Interior. It's been a mess since they started...
  8:27am
Elwyn:

When did it start?

Another thing was that another of the main characters was visiting the reservation just to get cheap cigarettes because she wasn't paying tax on them or something then the lawyer made her full price.
  8:27am
Chuck:

Happens all the time, Elwyn. In order to claim such the Dept. of the Interior has some screw ball rules for you to prove that you are a member of a specific Native American group. Government crap!
  8:27am
Dave B:

If I remember correctly, Native Americans were relocated to reservations in the mid 1800's to "protect them" from encroaching settlers.

As far as the fractional heritage, that goes back to the "one drop rule"
  8:28am
jeff p:

GUAM!
  8:29am
Dave B:

MIDWAY!
  8:30am
Chuck:

In my studies of this some Native American groups don't even get recognized at all! So the whole ethnic group gets NOTHING under the government rules!
  8:30am
jeff p:

PUERTO RICO!
  8:30am
Chuck:

SAMOA!
  8:31am
Elwyn:

@Meghan:
Virginia is scaring me. It's making me think of "Deliverance"! - I know that's Georgia.

@Chuck:
I think Australia has something similar but without the casinos. It's a mess too with alcohol, petrol sniffing and child abuse. The previous government introduced laws a few years ago that some considered racist because it made aborigines have to do stuff - OK. I can't remember what but they were tougher laws.
  8:31am
Andy in Berlin:

Hi everyone. Just got in. I guess I'm going to have to get this one on the archives.
  8:32am
Dave B:

  8:32am
Dave B:

@Elwyn - Rabbit Proof Fence
  8:33am
Chuck:

Certainly world history proves that "whitey" will stiff any indiginous population. It's a crime, I say!
  8:33am
Meghan:

OH, good one Dave!

@ Andy Hello Andy!
  8:34am
Elwyn:

  8:36am
Elwyn:

This is the cheese set!
  8:38am
Andy in Berlin:

Waving back at you! Yes its like 2:40 over here
  8:41am
Chuck:

Thanks for distracting me from going into an anti-white man tirade kids! I could have gotten ugly about it.
  8:41am
johN:

  8:48am
Dave B:

  8:50am
jeff p:

  8:51am
Skirkie:

I've been hated by some fetuses (feti?) in my time. You just can't please some folks/feti
  8:51am
Dave B:

  8:52am
Meghan:

  8:52am
Adrian in London:

Bugger, just tuned in and missed D&B. I'll listen again. They were great at the Barbican in London doing 13 Most Beautiful.
  8:53am
Meghan:

Jeff P- I do have a friend that would have Jethro Tull on their personal list of Not Allowed. He hates flutes in rock songs
  8:54am
jeff p:

I'm with your friend there, Meghan
  8:56am
Dave B:

@Jeff P & Meghan -

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBRyjMHO_Ew#t=1m16s
