  A comprehensive, respectful EIS (Environmental Impact Study) found burial sites on Mauna Kea are either at lower elevations or on the pu'us. There are no records of burials anywhere near the TMT site. The closest shrines are about one thousand feet or more away from the TMT site.
  
  ..."kapu to even talk about." This begs the question, why are you talking about it then? The idea that anybody follows the kapu system today is ludicrous. Men and women can't dine in one another's company? Women are not allowed to eat certain foods? Offenders face death. 
  
  As I've said elsewhere, the protesters' ideology and sovereignty agenda TRUMP their concern for our children's futures. Such short-sighted self-interest is truly sad. It most definitely is not Hawaiian in spirit or intent.
