I agree as well. However, I was making the point that there are also some great people out there and, as archaeologists, we should be thinking about what we're doing rather than just going 'it says 20% of linears and we've done that so that's OK then', rather than thinking about whether that's appropriate in this case!
Sorry, that was rather a long sentence......
Back to the original topic then, I'm starting to think that in 5-10 years time there will possibly be a lot less of us again. And we'll still be having the same problems of retention of people past the first few years so that there are people who can manage sites/make reasonable curatorial decisions/manage large mitigation projects/undertake the research.
