Have we been here before............. it seems the key is to act quickly though...........
Well I guess I could state the obvious and say that in Rescue there is already a campaign group that promotes all of the issues Andy Brockman and JP Stone have raised.....but as most of the 'established' archaeological bodies have shown a singular lack of interest in Rescue over the past 30 years, some might feel its below their dignity to now 'promote' Rescue as saviours of the day!! Shame really...cos that would be a positive way forward, particularly as Rescue have been quite active in monitoring the current trends in UK archaeology and from that point might be said to be some way ahead of the CBA ...
With peace and consolation hath dismist, And calm of mind all passion spent...
