RAH wrote fiction, the Prophets wrote History. When you are in the field on a survey do you stop at the local open-air market and buy plastic replica artifacts, or do you insist on the real thing? You do not publish papers confusing the plastic look-likes with the prehistoric flints, bones and other diggings, eh?
