So all of you are agreed that it's absolutely impossible for a Roman
     ship to have made it to the New World?

     You guys sound like the anti-Viking position back before the discovery
     of the Newfoundland site.

     Certainly the pop. press will hype this stuff.  Certainly the reports
     we've seen are not what we'd consider good evidence to support the
     claims in the press.  But sometimes it's true anyway.  Maybe not this
     time (who knows?) but to take the position that it CAN'T be true is
     poor science.
