You are using words like Escapade..... and Salvage...air of legitimacy ....muddles through.....ad hoc....
and make a confused statement about Cambodian antiquities.
First I find you choice of words... an insult to what I and the PAS are there to do... are you suggesting I am that incompetant? are you suggesting I just muddle through? I am ad hoc... and on a jolly escapade.. As I have said.. if you want to get involved in this... come with an open mind... and talk to me off list where I will discuss in depth the concept... As it is unlikely that will be there then I doubt that you will be contacting me.
You talk about salvage... so what do you want to do... would you prefer that we keep to our little forts hurling misconceptions at each other... or take a step forward?
You may say the only answer is to ban the rally... well that is not going to happen... so now what... grumble and tut as Vulpes said...? Or get involved and work with people? Guess which way I am going.. brave (nah) just realistic... this is an opportunity... and I will report back about how it goes afterwards, rather than condemming beforehand.
This is not a place to discuss whether or not you want it to happen... this is not open to debate... it IS happening and I will see how it goes. If it is a disaster I will hold my hands up.. if it is a partial success I wil be happy .. or if it actually helps to show that hobby rallies can be useful as part of a group effort(which is what I think will happen) then I will do a little dance ...
Unlike some who go to rallies and stand on the edges of fields and hold their headds in horror... I will step into the field (nay I am invited into the field) and do a positive act.
Another day another WSI?
