No worries, it was not the most clear joke (it went over people's head I think, seeing the downvotes).

All jokes aside though, coincidentally I just finished reading Robin Wall Kimmerer's "Braiding Sweetgrass", which has reinvigorated my respect for the Haudenosaunee and the Three Sister's. Such a great read! I'm a student of ecology at the moment, and I studied Social Anthropology years ago so it was double interesting.
