VRWC - I was going to congratulate you for that great find - but when I went to the link I wondered who wrote it - so I went to the original site - did you? Bizarre. Found out who wrote the stuff and went to Amazon to see if I could find out what kind of guy this DR.Kenneth V. Iverson is - dunno much yet - but here's one of the reviews of this book that this stuff comes from....

Don't waste your money on this one ....,

July 27, 2001

Reviewer: A reader from Cardiff UK

This was a very disappointing book, particularly considering the good reviews it has obtained. The author bores his audience throughout with his stilted academic prose and the scholarship is weak, sometimes to the verge of pseudoscience. The section on premature burials is pure fantasy and many references are distorted or misquited to fit Iserson's preconceived theories. This book may well suit would-be morticians, but has little to offer any serious scholar.

I need to know more about this guy before I accept what he says as fact - let me know if you find anything else to support this stuff.

I think you'll get a chance to "meet" Goff when he testifies. If my hunch is right he will turn the bug guy trade upside down.
