    3. It seems that someone wants to spoil our great list and one of our compilers, whom the rest of us are so thankful to have among us. I've been trying to think about what it is about that word that so upsets someone in our group - but for the life of me, I can't think of what it would be. From my readings, Indian women were revered and they were called squaws. Some tribes were even matriarcal !! I am truly saddened that anyone would feel threatened by the use of word from our past and then threaten our "list unity". I am even more saddened that this person attacked the member of our group who is working so dilligently to help us all !! Nalora, you are treasured by the rest of us. If you can, please don't let this one person make you leave us. Sharon
