uncontacted tribes on amazon.com

http://edition.cnn.com/20...index.html

For real :
they don't know what a light bulb is ?
they never heard of the internetz ?
they never ever watched television ?
never ever listened to radio ?
They don't know what a Big Mac is ?
What do they say when they see a plane fly over ?
Do they know what butt-sex is ?


Illegal logging in Peru is threatening several uncontacted groups, pushing them over the border with Brazil and toward potential conflicts with about 500 uncontacted Indians living on the Brazilian side, Survival International said.


now what is the definition of 'uncontacted tribes' I wonder ? If they're pushed back I'd think they saw a bulldozer or something and that would be contact to me. Or is it just they never saw Dan ? That would mean that there's no uncontacted tribes in Wales anymore pout

It would be so nice if just for once people would leave other people the fuck alone confused let them live their lives without hovering over them as if they are specimens in some creepy lab observation confused

Even in an age when cynical sleuths can hyper-analyze stories for truth and accuracy, the occasional hoax still slips through the cracks. Such was the case with a so-called "lost Amazon tribe."

A few months ago, mainstream news outlets (including, ahem, Yahoo!) reported that a photographer had found a lost tribe of warriors near the Brazilian-Peruvian border. Photos of the tribe backed up his claim.

As it turns out, the story is only half true. The men in the photo are members of a tribe, but it certainly ain't "lost." In fact, as the photographer, José Carlos Meirelles, recently explained, authorities have known about this particular tribe since 1910. The photographer and the agency that released the pictures wanted to make it seem like they were members of a lost tribe in order to call attention to the dangers the logging industry may have on the group.

The photographer recently came clean, and news outlets, perhaps embarrassed at having been taken for a ride, have been slow to pick up the story. Now, the word is starting to spread and articles in the Buzz are picking up steam. Expect a lot more brutal truth in the coming days.
