*** Moved from 'Pool the Resources' thread/Mesopotamian Magic board, with respect to the valued posters, I want to easily be able to see the Bibliographical stuff on that particular board. But Ive preserved the convo here, since its a whole thread now, maybe someone can suggest an avator for me? Ive been pondering.

The The Neo-Assyrian Text Corpus Project web site provides a communications directory, which is a large list of email addresses of ANE scholars.

A stern warning comes with the list, so use it responsibly... or else.

"This list is provided solely as a courtesy and a convenience for academic professionals. Any other use of the list, especially for commercial purposes, is considered unethical behavior and may result in the invasion of the offender’s country by a coalition of the willing."

That's funny. I however have seen coalitions of the willing, and am not impressed. A second note, my wife loves the penguin avatar, asking me if it is an Imdugud penguin. (Penguin press placed their logo at the bottom of one of my books, and it really looks like it belongs there.)

Perhaps we should start a "Sumerian Humor" thread. Historical and modern humor related to the Sumerians

Actually it is the Linux penguin

It's a default avatar that comes with proboards.

Whew - hadn't updated my avator in a long time! The incense hand was special to me. But the most potent sensation does drift and is disapated in the wind just like sleep does steal ones resolve night after night..

So I have a new avatar - Just a half hidden mask, and a smile thats not really there.. But my friends know what is genuine and well intentioned without having to see it framed in the most obvious and simplistic ways.

What other avatars are new around here?
