MORE ON THE UPCOMING NOVA PROGRAM ON THE CAVE OF THE LETTERS in "Wartburg profs' work featured on NOVA" (Waterloo Ceadar-Falls Courier). The two professors in question were involved in the 2000-2001 excavation of the cave. The title of the program, incidentally, is "Ancient Refuge in the Holy Land." I hope it gets shown in Britain some day. I could almost catch it in the USA, but my flight home on the 23rd leaves too early.

UPDATE: Reader Allen Black points me to the PBS web page for the Nova program. Looks like there will be a transcript of it posted in due course. In the meantime the page has lots of interesting ancillary material.
