  4. Likewise what Juana says. I think we're all outdoors, doing summer-time cooking instead of reading our computers, that's all (I'm at work, so that doesn't count).

  5. Hi Ken, I got my copy of the book as an author, and I'm delighted. I know what's in my chapter on archaeology, but the perspectives and backgrounds of the other authors are fabulous. Thanks for making this such a quick turn-around so the content is so timely.
