I was also very happy and honoured to have met and have walked around Whitechapel (including visiting The ten bells and Miller's Court, i.e., obviously, the spots where they used to be) with Rob Clack, John Bennett, Mark Ripper, and Andy Firth after the conference on September 26th, 2010.

As for the Dutfield Yard photo “controversy“, this is something that would NEVER happen in my own field (musicology). But we've had other ugly occurencies. (For instance, how about putting out someone else's book as a reprint, without their knowledge, under a misleading title – such as, say, The C5 – crimes by JTR? for a book concentrating on, say, Berner Street? And yes, there's been a lawsuit and a prestigious German Press went down as a result of this, which forced me into changing the Press for my upcoming book, even if completely uninvolved in the quarrel. Only my boss was.)
To DrHopper:
My post #15 is meant ironically for most of it (i.e., for the offensive part of it). And believe me, it's safer for you to not know to what I'm referring. ;-)
