you stirred me Timber... the "real" world you seem to speak of is ruled by money and greed.
archaeology is a service for the community.
Its value is knowledge. Its product is knowledge. Its goal is knowledge.
were you also glad to see the privatisation of other council services - have they really been improved?
Will you cheer as community services and council structures are incinerated around us over the next few years??
will you tell the Forensic Investigation Unit, "don't worry, commercialism has worked fine for other expert services - competetive tendering will assure us objectuivty and best practice, as well as better working conditions and wages" ???
