Hello List, I had an idea. 1. Some Archealogists are not up to speed on cemetery restoration and stone repair. 2. 99.9% are professionals and would like to broaden their education. 3. There are people on this list that have extensive knowledge on restoration and repairs. 4. Find an a way to disseminate the info to the Archealogists through one of their Associations or email groups. Give them as much info as possible. Websites,email,restoration guidelines,etc. I know its simplistic, but wouldnt it be better to partner together? Share the knowlege. I remain your obedient servant, Mark Davis 4 Lakeview Ct.

Hey Mark, Glad to see I was along the same lines of thought as you. I will be looking up groups on the net and hopefully I can get a full listing to the group this week. I know that ArchNet and the SAA websites are two of the best to find e-mail address and mailing addresses. As far as disseminating the information, unfortunately because of the rift between amateur and professional, an initial contact mailing will at first need to be followed up with a phone call. You would be surprised to see how many more individuals you will find to come to a seminar if you follow up 14-10 days before an event with phone calls. The good thing is, once an archaeologist has a contact in the public, or a group to work with or learn alongside, they have faces to go with the events and will become more involved, and you won't have to go through as much hassle later on. Just a follow up on the suggestion Russ Hapke LP County, IN ----- Original Message ----- From: "mark davis" <md9105@skyenet.net> To: <INPCRP-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, February 14, 2002 5:16 AM Subject: [INPCRP] > Hello List, > > I had an idea. > > 1.
