Good freakin' grief.
The artifact is very cool. It's not a fake, at least as far as it's authenticity. Scott and rattler may have jerked a few chains as to where and when it was found, but it's clearly not a fake.
Lighten up.
America needs to understand that our troops are not 'disposable'. Each represents a family; Fathers, Mothers, Sons, Daughters, Cousins, Uncles, Aunts... Our Citizens are our most valuable treasure; we waste far too many.

We will never tell Norm. NEVER expected a confession , just letting the ? sink into the masses on the fire. The speculation on here will do the rest norm

so it was a fake? hey thats funny. thats friggen andy kaufman funny right there. yep, ROTMFFLMAO funny. Read the whole thing. No one has said for sure if it is the real thing or a fake. I have owned it thirty years and I know where it was for many years before I got it. The only joke was we did not find it here on my place yesterday.

Gents,....... fire me of your animal bone of choice, and the point you want "imbedded" in it. Please include the angle that you want it intersecting at, and the depth of penetration desired ( golly ) Guaranteed satisfaction with the results assured. An afternoon with the magnifiers on, my inleting chisels and scrapers, my 2 Fordom Tools, and some cold libations handy, that "Artifact" is no real challenge to replicate. I've never TRIED aging bone, ....but so doing by common chemical means is probably not rocket science. Hell of a NEAT way to display an interesting point, come to think of it. GTC

I think it was pretty piss poor. Once people start going out their way to HELP, like the guy that emailed a professor or some such to look at this, it has gone over the top.

The dean of the Graduate School of Anthropology at Washington State University, Dr. William Andrefsky, is an expert in Northwest Lithic technology. Just for kicks, I sent him an email with a link to this thread. http://libarts.wsu.edu/anthro/faculty/andrefsky.html See, once people start doing this to help, out of the goodness of their own heart, it has gone too far.

...Actually Sycamore, you are sort of right....

in the neck it would prolly be a killing shot hitting the nerves before they spread to the heart/lungs.....below where those branch off it would atleast be a paralyzing shot
