Thank you @agmoore. I really like that quote too, though I don't think it has anything to do with Egyptian curses.
Exo-archeologist. Thanks, a new term for me.
There was a period in the 70s when the word "exo" was used when speaking about alien life. Exobiology, for example. I suspect that this word sounds more academic than 'alien biology'. The term exo is now antiquated, but I figure I would resurrect it... like a mummy... ;)
