In the past 4 months I've taken a long vacation - a cruise to Alaska and a quick long-weekend trip to Abilene, Texas.
In Alaska - we saw a number of Totem Poles. In Abilene cave and hide paintings are more common. These are remains from the "First Nations" people who were here first. We also sometimes refer to these people as "Indians" or "native Americans".
Both share common element - they use stunning visual aides used to tell oral stories.
And the story-tellers are able to communicate very elaborate and exciting stories using these pictures as their guides.
These items are also amazing to look at but useless as information delivery systems without the story-tellers.
And not a single bullet point among them.
