  1. I grew up in Gallup, New Mexico, famed in song and story, and yes, it is a whole different world. Even more, in many ways, is the land “different” than the Sioux reservations area of North and South Dakota.

    Eons ago, New Mexico had a strong Green Party, with good support among Hispanics as well as American Indians in northern New Mexico.

  2. Stock, I thought you grew up in Texas, or was it California?

    Just stop trolling.
