From Ruth (BVREH) Mustie was recommended to meet with Charles, Classics.
13th Nov 2006 Mustie had a long conversation with "Charles" (XXXX tbc: Dr Charles V. Crowther (Contact details and subject interests listed here http://www.classics.ox.ac.uk/faculty/directory/buscard.asp?IDno=282)). Mustie reports: "Unlike our initial hypothesis, people in Classics are very much motivated to try new technologies and are not afraid of it!
