What a bunch of crap. Sorry to hear that Daniel.

[What a bunch of crap]
No pun intended?

That is very unfortunate, but I'm not sure I get why he's suing the Uni? If the specimen had been labelled and stored securely, the cleaning crew wouldn't have had access to it, would they?
If foul play is suspected, that's a different story.

Boy Susan, you are idealistic. No offense, but poop happens. Even if labelled correctly.

I do agree, a law suit will not be of help and only make matters worse. Oh except if the University will fund another 7 years of field work. Cheers

I just read the report, Seven years of field work "down the toilet" so speak...

Hope he wins.

Thanks for the link.
