Adrian,

I would be very interested in receiving one of your CDs. This is just the
sort of thing needed in historical archeology. I work on a military
installation and have over 500 historical sites, most of them farms and
ranches. Nevertheless, ethnicity and class make quite a difference in the
assemblages and even in the site structure.
