I tend to go with the Oriental Institute's endorsement.  As a leading
Egyptological organization, the Institute may hire psycho-ceramics, but they
are usually very competent and professional.  While Lehner is something of a
showman, the little I have seen of his work appears to be meticulous and
well within accepted practice.  His affiliation with the Cayce Foundation
was in the 70's.  About 1988 he became involved with the Giza Mapping
Project and has been working with the Egyptian government and a number of
professional organization to locate, excavate and record every site on the
Giza Plateau before it is lost to pollution, erosion and people.

Ok. Thanks for the info. Are you aware that he also is into (or was into) 
Edgar Casey? I would take his work with a grain of salt from what I have
read 
and heard of his work. 

Before someone is 'offended' by my 'free' speech, I have nothing against 
Edgar Casey adherents but since Casey's work is not scientifically 
verifiable, I would question the use of a person who is supporting such a 
claim (or did) who suddenly becomes an expert as an 'acceptably' legitimate 
researcher. 

I am not questioning your source but would like to be reassured of his 
complete divorce from the fringe sciences. Thanks in advance for your 
response.
