    Do you think the spirit of that rule is to bludgeon someone with it?

      Did you even read that rule?

      You and I have different definitions of the word "bludgeon", and I see no problem with showing somebody a site rule they've broken if it's a rule you think worth encouraging people to follow (which they clearly do feel).

  The article mentions the ‘traditional’ way in which magnetic surveys are carried out on the ground in archaeology. When it comes to helicopter surveys, the examples are only from geology. My question was meant to refer to helicopter surveys. I would therefore like to rephrase it: Have helicopters indeed already been used for magnetic surveys in archaeology?
