(The Tunica-Biloxi people send greetings to you all. We generously tell our stories to all of our friends reading this on their computers. In order to tell true stories, read carefully. This will be a good thing. The Sun strongly told us, “If the sun is shining, the Indian people are still here.” May many years come to you. Take care.)
