Seriosuly. I can't believe nothing flew over them before.
Imagine seeing that for the first time. That'd be insane.
*But why would they have such violent reactions if they know nothing about it?

Pretty amazing. And according to these pics, their skin is indeed painted VERY red or dark. Too bad that now that "civilization" has found them. They're screwed. Also, I wonder if THEY know about the other civilizations. I mean, it'd seem crazy to me that they would still live peacefully while their forest is getting destroyed. *But why would they have such violent reactions if they know nothing about it? Same reason why we assume any extraterrestrial life form would have only have one task in mind : wipe out humanity.

Fascinating stuff. It seems so odd to think that a tribe like that still exists in today's world & has avoided detection for so long.

I hope they are left alone. Sometimes I wish I was like them, life would maybe be simpler and better.

Leaving them uncontacted does bring up the possibility of an ethical dillema. What if the tribe is ravaged by (disease perhaps from coming in contact with illegal loggers) or starvation? Does society have the right/responsibility to step in to provide care, or do you let nature run it's course?
I honestly don't know the answer to that one.....

Now what they need to do is take the tribe, place them in one of the most technologically advanced homes in the world, with lots of advanced devices and appliances, watch the hilarious results, and videotape it for worldwide broadcast. Now that's some good TV right there.

There's no way of knowing if the tribe is affeceted by some illness that we could easily cure without contacting them. Then again, that could only make things worse.

Me and my friend decided were going to do what Bender did to the frozen people in Futurama.

They have survived thus far without our "help" no reason why that can't continue.

Just adding TV to quasi-modern islands screws the entire place up. Leave them the f*** alone, they don't need contact with 'civilisation.' The fact they're alive, not rake-thin and... well, yeah, alive, shows that they are fine.
I was reading The Sun today - I know, WHY? I think I was looking at the titty pictures in it - and the comments they'd put in their article... completely disgusting.

Guys, I have a confession to make.
I'm not proud of this... but it was due to circumstances beyond my control.
... I poisoned their foodstuffs.
It's not my fault though, the guy with a yellow exclamation point above his head made me. And it helped me reach a Revered level in his town.. so.... ya know... it all worked out.

It's the nerds who are completlely unaware that they are, in fact, nerds... that are just kinda sad.
