This is such a no brainer, though they probably won't allow it.
Lake Titicaca. For those unaware, it's the largest lake in South America, and I did not make up the name. It's a sacred lake to the native indigenous peoples there, and to top it off, the name translates into Rock Puma. Which in itself is a decent name too, Rock Puma. |

Did you know the Boston tea party wasn't a protest over a raise in tariffs on tea, but was over a reduction in the tax? |
i thought it was because of the monopoly created by the east india co and the english govt, as well as a general protest against all the intolerable acts...

Tzonot - Mayan word used in the Yucatan Peninsula that refers to various types of bodies of water contained in cavities in the limestone, which makes the flat plain that constitutes that peninsula.

From a recent book I just read, however, we have.... "Another great event in the history of the United States is the infamous Boston Tea Party. You know the story. On December 16, 1773, a group of colonists, angry at paying higher taxes on their tea, dressed up like Indians and dumped crates of tea bricks belonging to the British East India Company into the Boston Harbor. Not sure why we're so proud of an act of vandalism, but that's beside the point. The point is, the Tea Act, which the colonists were supposedly angry about, actually reduced the duty on British tea imported to America. So why did they really revolt? Because once British tea was affordable, it would ruin America's lucrative trade in black-market tea, because three-fourths of the tea sold in America was smuggled in by John Hancock. Now the whole idea of dressing up like Indians makes sense, doesn't it?" This is readily verified. |
yeah, there were huge smuggling operations going on-tea as well as other goods. and some people are bored by history....i love it.
