Do you think reservations are good/useful? As an outsider, I've always thought they were pointless because there is more bad than good e.g. alcohol and drugs, poor education, poor job opportunities, poor healthcare, poor justice, etc. But that is because those are things that I value. If you value your Oneida culture and heritage more than those things then there is potential for reservations to be good. Is this the case?

If that wasn't worded clearly enough, do you think that Native Americans would be better off leaving reservations and living and growing up like everybody else?

Being new to the job, do you feel like you make a lot of "anticipation" mistakes? like when you are trying to follow the play and you are panning to follow a player or the puck but then you misread the play and are suddenly following nothing.

Which sports are easier/harder to film?

That wouldn't be a good idea, but that doesn't mean VicJackson is wrong. It is very possible that one of the genetic traits that is a part of being Native American means that alcohol has a bigger effect. In fact, this is literally the case with East Asian people. It's a deficiency of something in your liver (or something like that) so alcohol isn't broken down as well. Basically, if your ancestors didn't drink a lot of alcohol then drinking will probably affect you more.

Most silent letters in French do follow the rules though, even if there are a lot of them.

I’ll add to the dice analogy: not only are we rolling the dice more often, but the dice we are rolling are nastier than they used to be. Like if the old dice had 3 sides with “no storm”, 2 sides with “storm”, and one side with “catastrophic storm”, the new dice have one of the “no storm” sides switched to a “catastrophic storm” side.
