What I offer on here is my opinion and has no reflection on the site Host.Having scoured metal detecting publications for years and, counting some MDs as good friends-I am a little more than informed on the subject.What the f**k is this individual banging on about? If I suddenly came into possession of a scalpel I certainly would`nt rush into operating theatres claiming
1. to be a surgeon and
2. that I and my colleagues will do as I damn well please.
It has got to the state of play where I too can no longer be bothered. This site is (for me) for and about archaeology.Whilst I had every intention of taking a full part in the excellent dialogue offered by Steve-B,I have no intention of continuing this garbage offered by whoever 1504 is or, has clearly been misled to believe he/she is. There`s over 50 million people in this country-20,000 MDs really is`nt an impressive figure. I would love to enter into constructive dialogue with the MD community but, I`m afraid I`ve run out of polite things to say to this individual. On a final note-in this country until very recently, it was quite legal to rape someone so long as you were married to them. Waving "the law" about as some sort of passport to doing as you please is no defence.Laws can be changed and the pace at which that can happen is always accelerated when the 50 or so million out there are adequately informed as to the activities of 20,000. This is my last post on this thread. I will sign off by saying this...
If there is any chance that Steve-B would consider opening a new thread of his/her own, I would love to take part in a clearly well informed dialogue.Until then, this thread can be available to those who feel the need to get involved in kindergarten politics.PS-thanks Fluffy, I like the sound of that!!!
