Here here, Dave.

The IAA has been acting VERY strangely of late. Almost schizophrenically in the announcements it makes (the YI, the JO, and the pomegranate), and in the projects it chooses to back (a search for the Ark of the Covenant by supporters of the late wacko Ron Wyatt).

VERY strange, indeed.

Based on recent activity and the questionable methologies that have come to
light, one wonders if perhaps the IAA has a hidden agenda in all of this
"forgery detection"........As usual, I don't really care whether the item in
question is authentic or not (in this case, I'm not even sure what it is).
But the way that the IAA has been doing things lately raises some disturbing
questions.
