I second Carl's comments! I could not have said it better. I may not read
every post but it is a great source of information. Where else would we
turn when we have that tough question or unique artifact?

Anita -
Thanks for running this list. Please don't get discouraged and give it up.
We all appreciate it and learn from it. I for one am not in an academic
environment, so this one of the few places I can interact with other
professionals who consider themselves "Historical Archaeologists."? In my
opinion, you are the greatest, and moderate the list wisely.

Subject: Should HISTARCH continue?
Considering all the discussion around whether or not Marco Polo should
be included in a discussion of Historical Archaeology (i.e.
archaeology of the modern world, 1400 forward), I am wondering if I
should continue running HISTARCH.
I have been running this discussion list alone since 1994 without pay
from any source, as a labor of love. I am not a professor nor
librarian in any university, the SHA does not pay me (although they do
use this forum), and I am not an employee of any governmental agency.
Nor am I paid to run ArchaeoSeek, although several people have stepped
up and donated monies for the $20 a month that it costs.
In light of that, and the fact that, while I do keep an eye on the
discussions and attempt to keep them on topic, this list is NOT
moderated nor censored. Considering the current tone of this latest
discussion, I am wondering if it all was a waste.
