I looked over all your reasons and I find that I disagree with them. I do like how you present your case with respect and intelligence, so I continue to read your weblog, and I have even recommended it to others.Allytriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02788153997759965308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2267100689194015085.post-76209578075856018502012-06-15T14:26:57.348-07:002012-06-15T14:26:57.348-07:00I am pro-reburial.

Once all study is done, take samples and re-bury it. I do respect your position and intelligence, which is why I read your weblog. But the case against reburial does not sit well with me.Allytriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02788153997759965308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2267100689194015085.post-88138426113265631472011-06-07T22:40:02.063-07:002011-06-07T22:40:02.063-07:00In addition to this, there's also the problem ...In addition to this, there's also the problem of Bog Bodies.<br /><br />The people who ended up in bogs were either sacrifices or criminals or possibly even murdered for their political views, or for some sexual transgression - we don't know. <br /><br />They probably did not want to be killed and shoved in a bog - so they probably would not want to be reburied in it, either.Yewtreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02028699564003381058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2267100689194015085.post-19588752666860006372009-07-20T06:48:48.987-07:002009-07-20T06:48:48.987-07:00Thanks, as ever :)
