Have used MDs on sites before and again recently. On two occasions, the guys were known to the mounties over a period of years and came recommended. Was a worthwile exercise. I had the opportunity to natter with an MD t`other day and he had some fairly disturbing things to say. One issue that clearly bristled his fur was the rudeness of some county mounties. It occurs to me that if MDs are making the effort to go that extra mile only to be met with a reception more appropriate to that of Mugabe, is it any wonder that we have nighthawks? Seems to me that as archaeologists we too should be going that extra mile.... as for bristlin fur, site seeding is on my personal list of dislikes as a deterrant...would be nice to see more MDs offering an opinion on here...County MDs anyone?
