"Indians" vs. "NovaMundians"
Another debate over the best term to use for the first inhabitants of the Americas. Writer Russell Bates tries to justify an alternative to "Indians":'Indian' though it may be contained in the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution, is a misnomer and should be corrected. ... In writerfella's science fiction stories, he invented the term, 'NovaMundian,' literally 'New World Man.'

Writerfella here --
What debate? Though the term 'NovaMundian' appears in several of writerfella's Native science fiction stories, the first of such stories will not reach print until later this year. Thereafter, all best are off. Then and only then can there be any kind of 'debate,' but writerfella may choose either to go fishing or to rearrange his sock drawer...

The debate in the comments section of a previous pasting. The posting I linked to in this posting. Duh.
You do know how to follow a link, don't you? Sometimes it's not clear that you do.
