Hi all,

In the original email, I read this:

And I read that as “There are currently zero native american people 
involved with this project, and we do not think any will get involved”.

Hence I then wrote this:

But, I've done some research and talked to people, and apparently that's 
not 100% accurate, or fair, so I withdraw that statement

Mea culpa!
