   Just watched the one on Geronimo.   
      
   I wasn't aware that many Apaches consider him nothing more than a trouble   
   maker who caused tremendous grief to the tribe when he got the lot of the   
   Chiriqaua exiled to prisons in Florida in 1886.   
      
   I guess I though the Apache would regard him much like the Lakota regard   
   Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull--patriots who fought to the bitter end   
   defending what was theirs.   
   --   
   Best regards,
