Yet another lurker here, might as well jump on the bandwagon and make
my presence known!

> 1) Who are you?
Jonathan Smith, currently working for a CRM firm in New Orleans as an
archaeologist/computer-network-fix-it-guy/GIS/jack-of-all-trades.
I've got a BA in Anthropology from the University of Mississippi. My
interest in Historical Archaeology was cemented by participatingi n
the Jamestown field school. I'm currently looking for a good
graduate program - need that master's degree!
I had a prior life for the better part of a decade as a network
administrator/consultant until I got fed up with sitting behind a desk.

> 2) Dirtiest moment in the field.
Working on a pipeline survey in Arkansas - the rains came, the mud
came, and we had to trek through a swamp. Enough said.
Outside of archaeology - pulling network cable through a cement
plant. White dust from head-to-toe.
> 3) Your idea of the best dressed archaeologist, i.e. what practical
> gear should they be wearing?
Pants with lots o' pockets, good boots, and some means of toting
around lots of water - vital in the hot and humid Southeast.
