I agree with paul. Archaeological texts/theories are there to be disputed and revised... If their is a serious professional problem with the guy then there are more appropriate ways to deal with him (after all he is a member of the IFA).
If he has done things in the past, shouldn't they remain in the past? Everyone makes mistakes, surely a vital reason behind our profession is that we want to learn about our past, so that we don't repeat mistakes (our is this just my view?). I'm sure we have ALL done things in the past that we regret (even Dr Pete, and Mr Hosty), is it fair/right that they are held over us for ever to extent that of a witchhunt??
It is interesting to note that when the heat is turned the other way BAJR threatens to lock the topic??
Incidentlly can anyone tell me what the individual has done in the past which is soooo terrible (off line please)
