Chris, if you don't want to get enflamed, then don't you think it
would help if you don't let yourself get hot? It is a place for
graduating students to ask about a job about archaeology and
anthropology. It is moreover a place to inquire just what
archaeology and anthropology is, and where it is going. That's all
we were, and are, doing.

What I think this place is not, is a place for people to speak to
others as if those others are in their classroom. You might be used
to it, and accept it. I don't.

It is over, done --no?
