Pete,
I thought the whole account was disgusting - how dare they, what the hell would they think if we went and desecrated one of their national monuments.

Suppose it says something about our "authorities" when something like this can happen.

Not normally a violent person, but I'd like to kick their f***** heads in.

Moey

I shouldn't think that an organisation that relates to 'frontier science' and dishes out awards with Nefertiti on is really going to have that much clout in the Real World. I don't think they'll be the sort of people English Heritage and assorted archaeological associations / government departments would be doing much business with. Not worth the electrons of sending an email. I expect they gave the award to themselves?
