    Hi all, Just a few days ago I posted that I was going to hear Zahi
    Hawass at the Met. Museum, but now I've realized that I can't make
    it.  So, if anyone in the NYC area is interested in checking him out
    - he's a world-renowned Egyptologist - I have 2 tix for $25 a piece.
     I'm sure it will be fabulous.  

    Here's a clip from Amazon.com about his latest book "Secrets from
    the Sand": 

    In his newest book, Egypt's leading archaeologist takes readers on a
    personal tour of the fascinating sites he has excavated over the
    last 33 years. His stirring descriptions of his life's work,
    accompanied by many previously unpublished photographs, take us from
    the famous monuments at Giza, where he has supervised the
    restoration of the Sphinx and the Great Pyramid and excavated the
    cemetery of the pyramid builders, to the Valley of the Golden
    Mummies in Bahariya Oasis, perhaps the most significant and
    spectacular discovery in recent years. Zahi Hawass, recently named
    to the top antiquities job in Egypt, spins true tales of tomb
    robbers, explains how he negotiates with local Egyptians whose homes
    may lie directly above important sites, and describes in detail the
    exhilarating experience of entering an ancient tomb for the first
    time after thousands of years. Dr. Hawass is a spellbinding
    storyteller; in his hands archaeology becomes the stuff of
    enthralling adventure, danger, and wonder. 


Thanks!
