If a person can't trust science,what can they trust? I am referring back to the 1970's when a grand hoax was played on the world. It was announced that a primitive cave dwelling tribe had been discovered on an island in the Philippines. The Tasaday tribe were the rage for several years,complete with celebrity visits. Then it was decided that they should be kept isolated from the curious. In 1986 the restrictions were lifted and the "primitive" Tasaday were not found living in their caves,but in houses typical of the area. T-shirts and jeans had replaced loincloths,and some members admitted that it had been a hoax. They had been promised pay but ended up getting little as the perpetrator of the hoax left without paying, taking several teenage girls with him. Goes to show,you can't believe everything you read!
