I don't have access to that email account right now, but I do still have that info on that email. And I had to eat Crow---it tastes just like chicken---but I like chicken better.LOL

So, now is this saying that the URB Shawnee is NOT (not yelling--just emphasizing) a state recognized Tribe in the State of Ohio? I'm not Shawnee so I really don't have any dealings with them. But I am interested in this because of the dispute that took place a year ago.
