    Default Disappearing Languages - 14 languages die every day

    Oklahoma and the Pacific Northwest are the 2 "Hotspots" places listed in America with dying languages. Of the Yuchi language in Oklahoma only 5 tribal members still speak it fluently. The Yuchi tribe was originally in Tennessee, it was never a very large tribe. It would be sad if they completely lost their language.

    There's a National Geographic map showing the Hotspots around the world at this site:

    Project Enduring Voices
    The Elites don't fear the tall nails, government possesses both the will and the means to crush those folks. What the Elites do fear (or should fear) are the quiet men and women, with low profiles, hard hearts, long memories, and detailed target folders for action as they choose.

    "I here repeat, & would willingly proclaim, my unmitigated hatred to Yankee rule—to all political, social and business connections with Yankees, & to the perfidious, malignant, & vile Yankee race."
