[edit] What is Oriental Philosophy?

As long as I do not know the answer, I cannot find a suitable expression for the German version of the article. "Orientalische Philosophie" is just a verbatim translation, which I cannot find anywhere else. PSE take into account, that "oriental" refers to things of more or less Arabian origin, most of the time, in our language...

A discussion in the English/German language forum at LEO's would not provide me with a satisfactory translation.

PSE help, if you can. Have a laugh, if you cannot.., the sun is shining.

Does anyone know which songs of hers were covered by any of the artists mentioned on her page (Chet Atkins, Cher, Neil Diamond, Donovan, Janis Joplin, Taj Mahal, Elvis Presley and Barbra Streisand) I am interested Rachel Ayres 02:50, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Now That The Buffalo's Gone"

[edit] possble discrepancies in article / more info possibly needed

I have read many articles on Ms. Sainte-Marie that say she was married to a gentleman named Dewaine Bugbee and that she has one son. Neither is mentioned in the article. Also, though all sources mention her personal and professional association with Mr. Nitsche, I never read in any other source that they were married. This apparent discrepancy puzzles me.

I think there ought to be some mention in this page about Ms. Sainte-Marie's life as an activist for various causes including Native American rights.
