Focus on UK Metal Detecting: Why one Tekkie Does Not Record his Finds Responsibly

In the comments to another post, a UK metal detectorist explains with full apostrophe abuse why he refuses to record his finds responsibly, with the PAS:

I certainly don't report anything to the PAS as Dr Roger Bland himself has given the FLO's carte blanche to act as they see fit. Further, he has given retrospective sanction to FLO's who act outside of the remit of the PAS. The PAS has shown itself to be an organisation that does not abide by it's own published remit.

 He calls the PAS "chameleons".  It's a simple "two wrongs make a right" proposition. Except "acting as they see fit" hardly strikes me as being anything wrong.
