dakine, this subject, combined with others here on PW, has brought out the worst in some, and the best in others. Papa always said, in everyone there is a little bit of good, and a little bit of bad. This TMT discussion evolved into a pile of "meadow muffins" (cow manure), although the subject is very important to all of Hawai'i. I say to you, EO. I stay trying to be "ha'aha'a", and it's freaking difficult.
Just to add to the conversation from a cultural aspect, I share with you all this story: (FWIW)
A young Hawaiian man and his friend were coming home over Saddle Road after going fishing a couple nights ago. Spotted a lady walking on the side of the road with a "light" in her hand (not a flashlight), wearing a muumuu, at 2:00AM. They stopped and offered her a ride. She was going to Mauna Kea, she told them (in English). They dropped her off at Puu Huluhulu. As they drove off, he looked in the rear view mirror and she was gone. He wrote, "She's back!".
People are leaving comments asking him if he is joking, and he stated something very clear: "Neva happen! I don't play around with this kine stuff! I neva sleep good because cannot believe what happened. Whateva, you guys, no believe. I KNOW."
Now, as a Hawaiian, this TMT subject (to bring it back to topic), has apparently brought Tutu Pele to Mauna A Wakea, to visit Poliahu. Will Tutu Pele support TMT, or not, is the question.
