"Indians" vs. "NovaMundians"

Another debate over the best term to use for the first inhabitants of the Americas. Writer Russell Bates tries to justify an alternative to "Indians":'Indian' though it may be contained in the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution, is a misnomer and should be corrected. ... In writerfella's science fiction stories, he invented the term, 'NovaMundian,' literally 'New World Man.'

Writerfella here --
What debate? Though the term 'NovaMundian' appears in several of writerfella's Native science fiction stories, the first of such stories will not reach print until later this year. Thereafter, all best are off. Then and only then can there be any kind of 'debate,' but writerfella may choose either to go fishing or to rearrange his sock drawer...

I don't have any idea which links you're referring to. As far as I know, there are no broken links in this blog. Why don't you learn to write clearly so we don't have to waste time interpreting your nonsense?

The debate in the comments section of a previous posting. The posting I linked to in this posting. Duh.

You do know how to follow a link, don't you? Sometimes it's not clear that you do.

To which writerfella responded:

As writerfella has stated before, FIX the links that show Rob the difference between moral outrage and being morally outrageous, and THEN writerfella might trust any other links found here...

At least you came up with a new excuse for your failure to follow links and thus educate yourself. So you're not just a lazy bum who can't be bothered to research whatever the hell you're talking about. You're also an incompetent computer user who invents an excuse whenever he can't surf the Net.
