Madam, - I urge you to continue printing letters such as that from John Cussen (June 9th), who sums up his view of our archaeological heritage with the phrases, "Ooohh look, Reginald, another broken piece of pottery!" and "Come quick, Tarquin, look at this piece of wood that used to be a knife!"
Juvenile ramblings such as this serve to highlight the clear, convincing and factual arguments made by those who would change the proposed route of the M3 to protect our heritage. - Is mise,
THOMAS HAYES, Moyvane, Listowel, Co Kerry
Madam, - What kind of alternative universe does John Cussen live in? On a more serious note, there is always money available for large roads, no matter how little travelling time is saved thereby.
There has never been enough money available for planned, non-emergency archaeological excavation, even for one of the most important sites in the country. - Yours, etc,
HELEN LITTON, Eglinton Road, Dublin 4.
