Yes to everything you say! Not convinced that we are "stuck with it" though, we`ve simply inherited it. I`ts time the story came out sir.Exposure and open discussion have to be the driving forces of change. Archaeology as a profession has to evolve. Perhaps this is a unique time where "what is best" is ridden roughshod over by the dictates of the dollar and powerful but, morally corrupt individuals and corporations. Capitalism has shafted most British institutions but dare I say it, these could be re-instated with the political will. Our finite resource on the other hand-will be shafted irretrievably.A stark choice for us then. Do or do naught. I`m for exposure (oooer) and the ball sits with us. Best wishes sire!
