AS have I when I was a Development COntrol Archaeologist... but then I would not allow shoddy work past me... 
BAJR don't think nothing about you being a single unit guy... BAJR is blind io :face-confused:
People should indeed be looking at quality... and that goes for everyone. Amateur, professional, academic, digger, researchers... don't care... Adequate has become a benchmark in many cases. I have seen shocking work in Commercial work too... the point being that 'rather than fragment and get huffy about each other, surely this is a cycle where everyone supports everyone else... ie... from community and amateur digs come the talent that makes the professional that helps the amateur groups (gawd I hate the word amateur) that produces the talent... etc.
As to being uneasy about taking lottery money? No more so that accepting from Mega Corp Industries or a Bank that trades in weapons or perhaps an airport group that plasters the green and pleasant land with runways? Pipeline for OIL or Gas anyone... winfarms that pepper the once unspoiled moors? I thinks ethical is a tricky one... and when looking down at ones hands you will find they are all fairly grubby... :face-kiss:
