I still class myself as a Field Archaeologist - as I still work in the field and use tools 
I am interested in where the definition ends... I was talking with a friend the other month, who still classes himself as a field archaeologist, but only gets to hold a trowel 2 weeks a year (on a community project) the rest of the time he Project Manages.. so his field is mainly a desk with paper piled high. Their is indeed a case for changing the name, one I support as well.. I remember the debate in COuncil..
The name change is more inclusive... and allows for expansion... what must be seen now is not just a name change, but a gear change.. Go get em!
