[edit] Email
Hi Grae Bear. I received your email, thanks. However, rather than reply via email I thought it would be better to continue the discussion on-wiki. I've responded at the WP:MESO talk pg, pls take a look if you will. I have also raised the concerns I have about including the ext link to the animated Aztec calendar, at the Aztec calendar article's talk page, if you have comments would be interested to read them there.

[edit] Your edits to Teotihuacan
I deleted a few of your recent edits to Teotihuacan because they were unreferenced and somewhat on the speculative side. For example:
- "The city was run by the holy order of Quetzalcoatl, a spiritually divine sect that believed in a "plumed serpent" god of the "holy wind." The word hurricane is derived from the last portion of the name; Huacan."
I don't believe that anyone knows who "ran" Teotihuacan. Also, the word "hurricane" is derived from the name of the Carib/Maya god Hurican or Hurakan. Other edits that I removed were similarly suspect.
We certainly do appreciate your edits. Please help. But any edits should be referenced.
