I&#039;ve some additional technical observations that support their views, and that can help explain why so many others before them including Alfoeldi took a different path. Crawford&#039;s sequence is essentially a minor edit of Alfoeldi. Whilst Ted and Bernhard have already published, in both cases it was in the context of a wider story, but I&#039;m convinced they were on to the real truth. I might add my non-scholarly pennyworth in time.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
