An interesting point. Perhaps the difficulty lies not in interpreting the symbols but in interpreting the way they are used. Bizarre grammar, references to a culture we don’t understand, that sort of thing. Also I was delighted to recognise the reference.

Fantastic island that Rapa Nui, but unfortunately it is not as isolated as it once was. Thousands of punks gather on the island and crowds go to visit the moai.

Tourism will probably be the one to destroy Easter Island.

What is so stupid about this article? It’s for entertainment value, if you’re not entertained go suck a dick bitch and don’t come back! I liked the article personally.

The picutre of the Rongorongo text reads as follows:

1.) Milk
2.) Eggs
3.) Sugar
4.) Those little festive umbrellas that go in drinks

Spoken like a true "insider", Jacques. Good luck in your attempts to become educated--though you are certainly off to a bad start!

Thanks for the input Jacques, I can only hope that one day I'll be as clever and knowledgable as you so obviously are.

Psy : some interesting ideas. some need more exploring . the language is older than the 1700’s suggested. you might like to look up work of Dr Georgia Lee who ran a UREP expedition to the island to study rock art. also try this connection”the caroline islands script” done in 1930’s to 1950’s. Best yet, go as I did and change your life.
