I have just received a stern letter of warning from the International
Internet Commission (IIC) about my posting showing a picture
of a Smithsonian staff member in an uncompromising situation.

For that, I sincerely apologize and it has been removed from the
Internet.

Meanwhile, I have been instructed to apologize to anyone I may have
offended, especially the Smithsonian Institution, the University of
California (at Berkeley), Penn State University and the American
Association of Physical Anthropologists.

A copy of the commission's letter follows:

better.
