John and I are subscribers to HCN, bu...Hi Jonathan,<br />John and I are subscribers to HCN, but I found your recent article on the Southern Utes to be one of the best I've read there in a long time, due partly, I'm sure to John's deep connection to Ignacio, but also to your thorough research. Your article was incredibly informative, so while reading it, I wondered how and where you got the information, for, as you stated, the Utes are not at all transparent. Thank you for pursuing the matter. The article was clearly written, despite the convoluted nature of the subject. As you state here, you wanted to show that the Southern Utes can look like either a corporation or a tribe. It seems they could also be treated as a nation, as you state, they use their sovereign status when it's convenient and their corporate cloak when it's not. Excellent investigative reporting. <br /><br />Also, we've been enjoying your family's culture shock blog, but are disappointed in not being able to comment on it. Best of luck in your great adventure and we look forward to reading more about it. <br /><br />Sharon Olbert (sebreno.wordpress.com)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
