I bet you want one to commute up the hill to work, don't you?
I am confused a bit by the protests though, as my belief is that the Hawaiians were excellent astronomers for their time in the ability to navigate, and work the aina according to the heavens. What better way to integrate modern technology with an ancient Hawaiian practice? I think that there is at least a good handful of native blood that are growing up to be great astronomers through their genealogy if given the chance, and what better a place to further their education in building the tools for their success than in their homeland? If I were native Hawaiian, I would be boasting we were the best astronomers of ancient times, and now have the best equipment for modern astronomy times. JMO
