 <A HREF="http://www.dharmatrading.com/nd.html">Natural Dyes</A>   Here is a
store just north of S.F. that wifie always 'drags' me into.  Certainly there
must be scores of other shops scattered across the lands that deal in natural
dyestuffs.    She, claims,  that this shop has 'things' that many other
stores lack.  But I did check their website and they have both natural and
synthetic indigo dyes.
    Let me know if it is indigo,  the preprocessed plant you are seeking.  I
understand that the indigo plant processing is a rather grueling ordeal of
fermentation and dessication.  Good luck.......flea

Sorry, forgot to tell you folks two things about the series:
- --it will be released as VHS tapes & DVDs every month or so, once they've
aired four or five episodes; you're supposed to be able to order online at
the website (below), but it's not working just yet.
- --there is an accompanying website, at www.cbc.ca/history; more info on
each episode will be released after it airs, so look for a bunch of good
fur trade stuff to start appearing in January.

Subject: Re: MtMan-List: Humble Pie

Dear C. Kent,

I am known to be sharp tongued, short tempered, and humorless.

It is not the words you use, it was the way you used them.  You do not use
the words in "the way those guys talked".  Until you are more conversant
with the vernacular it might be best to just speak in your modern
voice.  Old words were used in old ways, you (and damn few others) don't
have a grasp of a true and effective old style.  I believe Strunk & White,
The Elements of Style, ISBN: #0-02-418200-1, caution strongly against
trying to affect an idiom in one's writing style; few have the talent to
employ same successfully.

Some only make fools of themselves trying to effect what they consider an
"ol' timey" way of writing" (I'm actually thinking of someone else right
here, don't take this sentence personal).

It was not just your one posting to which I took offense.  The first time,
and every time, you used the word coon: you offended me, you don't have the
bones to call anyone on this list a coon.

I can call myself a mountain nigger, you can't.  Some of the people on this
list that I've known well for 20 to 30 years could get away with it: in
private.  Get the point?  It is also how it was then.

I am not pc and take strong offense at the suggestion of same.  You can be
the most experienced woodsman in the world, but I've heard that before from
braggarts and liars.  It is what you know that you share, it is how good
you are on the ground, us believing that you are more than BS ain't going
to come from a few words on a magic box.

Don't try and tell us that modern ways ain't no different than old ways --
until you really know something about the old ways.  We were all born in
this century and we all learned new ways first.  The best of the new ways
nearly killed me before I learned old ways that work.

We've never claimed to be the sole possessors of knowledge, people of the
rabbit stick I have nothing but respect for, and have learned much
from.  Can you walk naked with empty hands into the desert and survive;
indefinitely?  There are others with knowledge specific to their learning.

You seem to have forgotten you threatened Dave with a knife in your
posting; some of us take words seriously, even when the writer thinks they
are cleverly obscured.  You speak of humility in your opening and closing,
the words between betray you.

John...

Ahem....

Being such a "young" pilgrim under the tutelage of the good Captain et al,
wet behind the ears, unsure which end of the gun the wee little lead sphere
goes into, could get lost in the city park,  ect, ect..... I generally keep
my mouth shut in this august company out of concern of appearing uneducated
in the way of the woods....

How-so-ever, all this talk of sa..... sha.... sashaying mountaineers,
friendly horses, and worried sheep has me a wee bit concerned.... all I
have to worry about with the Wilson Hunt Price party is digging latrines,
fetching & carrying and the other sundry duties of a youngster surrounded
by the very ancient and venerable elder Brothers of the AMM.

So hopefully, no... he don't have no exchange program <worried look>

Howdy the list.
Lanney is dead on  about the linnen thread, the last  roll of Barbours
linen six ply I purchased was  $35.00 or so about 10 years ago.  This
"Cheaper than Dirt"  thread seems to have a more glossey  finish than
the Barbours,  but it looks like linen, smells like it, tastes like it
and
sews exactly like it.  Being a natural fiber  it takes dye well.

the spool I bought says on a sticker in the inside of the roll.   natural
linen 16oz. 6 ply.   a while back I checked the leather factory's price
[wholesale] on a roll of the same.  it was $45.00

Subject: MtMan-List: new web site....www.tipis-tepees-teepees.com

for the last  3 years I have been promising to put up a web site on tipis,
well....there is a site going up right now.  Hey, I have two computers hooked
up if you are wondering how I can two things at one time.  It is still going
to be several days before most of it is up because of the heavy load of
photos.  Which also means it takes time for it to down load on your side.
What I need it impute on what you think, though this is not strictly 1830s or
so, and how to improve the pages.

Thanks.......I think.
