D'oh.

The following sentence from the third paragraph of my previous far-to-long
post should have read as follows:

> This is intended to show the potential
> importance of a broad international understanding of the Australian
> archaeological record, and thus act as an implicit argument against
> insularity - whatever the cause - and for a wider use of Australian data
> internationally.

Forgot to add those little Australian references.  Otherwise it looks like
I'm claiming that no one anywhere uses any type of international comparison,
which clearly isn't the case.

Pity e-mail doesn't have editors....
