I'm not sure the scholars are imaginary, or that they are as
incompetent as Inger would make them appear.
To the extent they exist, I think they take Inger's skewed views
as reasonably fair comment. She does not relay our ng discussions
to her 'friends' (?) faithfully, when to do so might make her look
incorrect or foolish, in my experience.
Then, too, I think there may be a strong element of nodding and
agreeing in order not to provoke The Madam into further
conversation.
In certain backward parts of Sweden, (and
certainly in Sci-Arch) the only way to be
designated a scholar, by Inger, is to agree with
her. Otherwise, by default, you are 'not-a-scholar'.
So her statement is doubtlessly true.
Odd, that no archaeologist (or other somewhat
rational individual) has publicly agreed with
her claim that these HISTORICAL excursions
of hers (questions of merit aside) are somehow
on-topic for an archaeological group. Perhaps
none of her 'scholars' has a computer?
But I do like the whale and Halibut side-show.
Next we can begin discussing old cook-books
and fish recipes (as archeological artifacts,
of course.)
Hmm, while _digging_ in my library, I've found the following :
Halibut in puff-paste (serves 4)
4 halibut filets
Are that filets from a one or a four meter halibut?
However, the weight of the other ingredients should give you an idea.
Try some applied archaeo-cooking ;-P
I've just posted that Australian recipe so that people will at least
get _something_ from a thread initiated by Moronsdottir.
As an aside, I see that you have come to the conclusion that she's
an idiot. That's the beginning. Soon you'll see that she's a
full-blown moron.
Every person has his own vocabulary.
