Crazy,
Been out in the field doing research on a new fine in the northwest section of the state, an unknown village just discovered. We have to mark and ident. the area on maps then bring in the college students to start the dig. Reason for not coming right back with an answer.
Whatever you/me or whoever uses has a marketing background Crazy, that's what pays the bills, not ours but theirs.
Probably the one person we both know that has shot as much or more game animals over the years is Buck C., the reason I say that is he hunted for the state of PA after coming back from E. Asia as an animal control agent, didn't try and save them in the 60's, just got rid of the problems and he was good at his job.
He would probably agree with you on most of what you said except for the soap that takes out the "brighteners" that regular soap adds when clothes are washed. I've seen him and several of his hunting friends crawl up close enough to have made meat with a hawk on antelope, granded they are not as leary as white tail, but still the animals never looked their way in the process of getting close.
What I had mentioned was what I see when in the field checking hunters in our seasons here in PA, the bow hunters with some of the items mentioned seem to have the most success. Most animal urine will work, in E. Asia the VC could pick up our sense from our urine and other waste because of our diet - reason why special forces started eating the same thing they ate.
As far as smoking, that's been an on going "do and don't" subject for decades, probably today more than ever before; maybe some parents use it as a "carrot" to keep the kids from smoking. <GGG>.

Buck Conner has a like new blunderbuss (original) that he picked up for a present for his father in the late 50's. After his father received it he checked the bore and found it was loaded, this is what's interesting.
Buck has an old glass rolling pin used for baking that his father put the contents of the brass barreled blunderbuss in; 1st load removed was old cloth with a stripe print, small square cut nails and broken green glass, more of the same cloth, then very fine powder (like cigar ash) - 2nd load was similar patching/different print, a half dozen lead balls about 36 or 38 cal., a small handmade iron chain (8-9" long), more patching and then fine powder like first load removed. The lock is very large with a "French Amber" flint wrapped in leather and it still throws a shower of sparks. From the proof marks and inspector marks this blunderbuss belonged to the British Navy and has a pre-1760's date.
Write him and see if he'll sent you a picture, it is a very nice piece. What a tipi sweeper this would have been in a mountain camp.

Why would they? or Why would they not? They were just people who came to
the mountains to work and did not subscribe to any particular costuming. Now
there were French Voyageurs who were a little more social that were reported
to have worn them. Remember ONE ear ring only - and that in the left ear.
Seems they discovered early the cock on a recoiling firelock would catch an
ear ring and bend it badly. Didn't do much good for the ear, either.

As for priced noses I would dout it very much not unless the trapper was a
half breed form one of the tribes that did priced there noses and out west
there were not that many tribes that did this. As for ears If a trapper again
was from or adopted by a tribe, there is a chance that he would get his ears
priced but it would have been both ears as that was the custom of the tribes.
As for having problem when shooting a rifle only if ya wear long dangly type
ear rings would this be a b problem. As for this being something that would
be done by many trappers I dout it. For in none of Miller's pictures does he
shows no trappers with ear rings and I have found no mention of them being
worn in any of the journals that I have read. Not saying it was not done but
it is not documented as far I know.

Hey was just checking a few sites and see that the buffalo raffle has had over 1200 hits on the counter, wonder how the raffle is doing, what's happening Randy. Are the odds of winning as good as before or has that chaged with new tickets ? Has to be still better than state LOTTO tickets and for sure more edible.
Watch the skyline when leaving and do come back.

Careful out there, Ladies and Gents. Someone has figured out how to send
from the AMM history list with bogus subject lines like "MICROSOFT
CORPORATION". There is an attached .zip file YOU SHOULD NOT OPEN UNDER ANY
CIRCUMSTANCES. In fact, you are best off to just delete the mail without
reading it.
This is a sign of the times; they're coming from Lists of all types that are
being mined for addresses. The latest one I got came from the hist_text
@lists.xmission.com, but was sent to a different email than the one I use for
the List.
