The renewal of interest in "Nazi War Diggers" reminds me of the whole "legal team" one of the participants claims to have set about closing this blog down on his behalf (Sunday, 1 February 2015 '"Nazi war Digger": Statement '). Here I am sitting here shaking in my boots (it was minus 19 in my car yesterday morning) waiting for the axe to fall, and ... nothing. Then there is the whole "legal team" which Deep Digger Dan has also enlisted to close this blog down (Saturday, 19 September 2015, 'Deep Digger Dan Threatens to Close the PACHI Blog...'). Nowt. That's a bit like the several other metal detectorists who have made similarly-worded claims. Why are they so afraid of open and clear discussion of what they do? I am not a bit interested in closing down the blogs and websites which collectors like these put online for everyone to see what they represent and how they engage with the issues raised about what they do. May they long continue to be the "ambassadors for their hobby" and do the damage they are doing to the fluffy bunny image created by the spin put on artefact hunters and collectors by their supporters gathered around the PAS.

Sluggish "Legal Teams"
