Hmmmm... imagine Irish monks warning their subjects about Viking-aphobia, circa 1,100 years ago.
AA, this study is about as silly as trying to prove that rape along the coasts of the 9th-century British Isles coincided with spring time Viking raids, or, I mean, "visits."
Any idiot can plunge into the labryinths of the mysterious to seek that slight Ariadne's thread of reliable knowledge to be guided by. It takes Social Scientific Genius to plumb the shallows of the utterly, preposterously, obvious.
It is just as well History is [aptly] classified as one of the Humanities.
AA, now you're talkin' my language. I tip a bottle to you and R.G. Collingwood this late Dakota eve. Tomorrow I travel to the southwest corner of northern Dakota, straight into the Badlands. Pretty and rough country. Big Oil has -- praise something -- been drilling willy-nilly in that part of the state, in northwestern South Dakota, eastern Montana, and northeastern Wyoming.
Of course, our Kapitalist Kountry is so insensitive to cultural resources -- that's why we're being sent in, to guide the oil companies around religious and cultural significance (whether Native- or Anglo-American). I'll report upon my return.
Keep kickin' ass up there in western Canada. How about this for a dissertation topic: The History of Mathematics in the Canadian West.
