How Toby Spribille Overturned 150 Years of Biology...
I lived in Montana for years. The only population of folks that speak German that I'm aware of are Hutterites (German variation of the Amish or Mennonites). If he comes from that group, it makes the story all the more amazing.

Wow, I hadn't thought of that. It would be really interesting to hear about his experiences in his own words.

Thank you. I was trying to deduce which religion he was referring to but there was not enough information in the article.
