Right folks- i think its time we went back to normal. Anita as the list 
moderator and owner has to make the decisions and we should heed her 
even if we occasionally push those limits. This is one of the best 
archaeology lists out there. The main reason is that it is fairly 
focussed and the members share a common interest and knowledge of 
historical archaeology whatever that may be. Its main focus is clearly 
American but it has been very tolerant of  its European and Antipodean  
members adding an international touch.  On which score - ceramists might 
be interested to know Christine Pleijl-Ketel's (of Witte Leeuw porcelain 
fame) mega-volume in English/ Kraak Porcelain- the rise of Global Trade/ 
has been published by Interbooks - but I am afraid the hefty 170 Euro 
price is beyond my means.
