Apparently the Smithsonian doesn't like these fake ads made up by a couple of students. Too bad, because they're kind of awesome.

Okay, I can understand why the fake ads would make the Smithsonian wince... but they're still really awesome.

The Duffy's Cut dig has received quite a bit of coverage in Ireland, including a radio news report I heard last year and a TV documentary back in 2006. Coincidently, there was an article about it in the Smithsonian magazine last year. One of the things that really struck me about it was that one of the bodies was identified because of a rare genetic trait - a missing molar - shared by some Irish families from where the workers are believed to have come.

Found the radio show! It's a RealPlayer file, and the relevant bit is at about 8 minutes long, starting at the 30 min mark.

YES! I loved the plot twist about Kalinda. I'm really curious to see where they take it.

Will!! OMG is right. I do like him but he does have a bad side.

I agree with the question about Childs & Lockhark Gardner. WTF his issue?! Granted it may be a way to get to Peter through Alicia, but who knows?

Those Smithsonian ads are the best ever. They really have their heads up their butts. We weren't able to work with them because of dithering and inability to make decisions for fear of offending some unknown constituency.
