No wonder I can't get one in hunting season, they're all hibernating in the mud.

Yes I would remove the sheetrock with tile attached. Much easier for demo and replacement. The amount of effort required repair the nasty mess of holes and rough surfaces while maybe not a daunting task, would likely result in an uneven finish causing your new tile to bulge and ripple.

Reply to comment by Woodyee101 in PA Unemployment is depressing and should be reworked by DigitalDash18
Unemployment compensation for many is not a "good time", but more of a stop gap measure and as such is considered a necessary portion of yearly income. I work in a trade where the jobs are somewhat seasonal, of short duration and at times comprise of emergent contingencies where a ready pool of skilled workers are required to maintain and service critical infrastructure. Lay-offs are frequent and at times lengthy, but are also an accepted condition of employment given the pay and benefit package. Perhaps you shouldn't be sitting on your brain, exposing you biased notions, spewing your ignorance, while adding no value to the topic, and judging others from your ivory white tower.

To XJMETALLIUM,
You have in no way refuted the arguments I've presented. Your unsubstantiated claim that the books and authors I posted were unreliable because they were written by pale skins (your racism highlights your ignorance) is conclusively disingenuous by definition. Once again, and I can't stress this enough, I NEVER said there weren't any native populations in this area. Those were your words, perniciously misrepresented from my comment, with which you then felt justified in using to discount my statement and call into question my knowledge on a subject to which I have devoted nearly 40 years of my life. You are most assuredly out of your league.
Additionally, recalling another commenters post as a gotcha moment, by linking to a tribal distribution map (probably drawn and published by pale skins, again your words) is without substance and is inherently ineffective in the defense of your pathetic comments, solely because you have yet to definitively demonstrate how and where I stated there were no natives. Only then would its inclusion add credence to your assertion.
Ultimately, I have to question your ability to reach a logical conclusion or to present a coherent claim, when the comprehension of 2 simple sentences is beyond your grasp. I still recommend you read more books (written only by native authors of course, as your biases require). I would however, suggest you start with the dictionary.
Ps; I wonder, exactly how is it that have you concluded that I'm not of native descent?

So "native activity" is bereft of and is not in any way associative to or indicative of a culture or a population?! Got it! Thanks for clearing that up! Cahokia, Chichén-Itzá, Tenochtitlan, Echota or any number of Central or South American population centers would be by my ignorant, ill informed definition, hotbeds of native habitation. Perhaps given your hours of extensive research and vast knowledge of the histories, population levels and cultures of the tribes of Western Pennsylvania, you should easily be able to provide us with a list of comparable sites.

Where exactly, did I say there wasn't a such culture?

In the spring, walking through plowed fields along rivers and streams is how I started. Research online and other resources and most importantly remember to practice patience.

Most likely. I'm not expert in material identification. The vast majority of pieces I find are probably Onodaga, although I have found slate, quartz, flint and what I'm fairly certain is petrified wood among other things.

Western Pa wasn't exactly a hotbed of native habitation but it still witnessed it's share of native activity.

If somebody had called in a threat to the school about a Christian club, I wonder if their reaction would be the same.
