>>>> 'I assumed from what was written in TAJ blogs that you'd contacted "official organisations" concerned for their views on certain of the "problems" you highlight??'

>>>Nope. They are merely HA observations and don't pretend to be anything else.

quote ".....another has been left open since September 2004 and we can't get any information on what's happening. " and "...Enquiries have been made and no-one seems to know who did it."

Doesn't this imply you've asked questions? I assumed you'd asked "official organisations", afterall they're the ones most likely to have answers?


>>>> 'There might be another side to your stories?'

>Almost certainly, I'd say. Those with an alternative viewpoint are free to contact HA by email or, of course, they could start a blog, too.

Of course they can, obviously I was again wrong to assume you were providing informed information.

>>>> 'As for out-of-date items, perhaps an update could be posted later to keep people informed and to show that some solutions are found?'

>This will certainly happen when newsworthy things occur to follow up older items. But as TAJ was only launched yesterday its a bit early to post such items.

As I said though, some of the things you stated have already changed.

>>>> 'My original post resulted from reading the Blogs and was not meant as confrontational (its timing was wrong by me!). I realise TAJ is from a HA viewpoint, but you're not the only ones who care about the monuments, but thats how it comes across.'

>I think this says more about your perception of HA than is actually is stated in the blog. For HA to imply in any way that it is the only organisation who know how to care for monuments is ludicrous nonsense.


Well thats my perception, ludicrous or not.
