Hello kevmar, The change of stance of Heritage Action on Metal Detecting comes as a result of your hobby's patent disregard for the PAS or anything approaching archaeological best practice. HA have moved to our position of calling for licencing the hobby after years of trying to engage MD'ers in responsible and accountable practice, only to be met with indifference from your community and pointless trolling of the HA Forum. Personally, I don't think we've gone far enough; Nigel and others have always maintained a reasonable and fair-minded approach to your hobby. I'm not so tolerant; if I had my way, we wouldn't be asking for licencing now - we'd have called to ban the hobby two years ago. Pilgrim http://www.heritageaction.org/ Artefact erosion counter Current running total of recordable artefacts removed since 1975 by metal detectorists: 9,913,738 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The PAS is a very successful recording vehicle, ask any FLO,they are snowed under with finds waiting to be put through the system. the ''The change of stance '' as you put it, or moved goal posts as I would put it, is basically your lot not liking egg on the face, you must have hoped the PAS would flop, but it hasn't it's grown, so what do you do? change your minds. How very professional of you I must say. km.
