    I wonder why nobody ever demonstrates or threatens terrorist attacks at these kind of meetings.

    Because these people are not hurting anyone.

    We've come to think of indigenous people as quaint if they gain our thoughts at all. But take a moment on your commute tonight and look at the tired, stressed, pale people around you. Look at the dead cold eyes of people who are living on the modern treadmill.

    Dominant cultures have spent a lot of time destroying the often more in tune indigenious cultures. It is too bad that the G8 summit will help drive alot of our future and not this summit of people who are more often victims than people we listen to.
