Thank you for your comment. Although I am an amateur and relative neophyte
in the world of the scholarly analysis and discussion of the DDS, I have an
abiding interest in the history, culture, and archeology of the ancient
Near East in general and the DDS in particular. I subscribed to this net,
hoping to hear the "cutting edge" debate on all matters relating to the
DDS, and for the most part have not been disappointed. However, when I read
your comment above, I realized that I, too, had begun to erase entries on
these subjects because I felt the subject had already been amply defined,
attacked, or defended, and that a list of references was sufficient for
those who wanted to pursue the subject further.
By the way, I appreciate the bibliographies that net participants are
providing with their comments - you have directed me to a mountain of
reading!
