CAUTIOUS GOOD NEWS...
Jul 12, 2007, 18:08
From the Anderida Message Board:

Hi everyone.

Just had a meeting with the Sussex Archaeological Society.

I'm very pleased to say that we are now all pointing in the same direction and that our issues are no longer with the Sussex Archaeological Society

There will be releasing a full statement and press release in the near future.

Regards.
Greg Draven.

Watch this space is all I can usefully say for now. I don't want to get hopes up too early.

STATEMENT FROM THE SUSSEX ARCHAEOLOGICAL SOCIETY:
Jul 16, 2007, 13:26
STATEMENT FROM THE SUSSEX ARCHAEOLOGICAL SOCIETY:

The Sussex Archaeological Society would like to apologise to representatives of the Pagan Community, or any other individual or groups, who might have been offended by recent television filming on the Long Man of Wilmington. It was not the Society’s intention to cause offence. The Society is proud of its curation of the Long Man. In future the Society will consult representatives of the Pagan Community and other interested parties before sanctioning any significant activities.

It seems a shame to me that this issue has been hijacked by the pagan community (or aspects thereof). The real issue should surely be whether any damage has been done - not the feelings of a religious minority?

Any damage/risk of etc is deffo the most important issue. On this occasion I have no probs with pagans being singled-out in this way, as from what I can see, the pagans are the main peeps who could be bothered to give a shit....

Thank you Moth :-)

The most important thing to note is that it says "other individuals and groups". That matters....a lot.
