One of the more light hearted looks at this week's news that John Hopkins have uncovered scenes of debauchery at Luxor: "The ruins of a temple in Luxor in Egypt point to a discovery that could be the ultimate excuse for any teenager facing the music the day after a night out. Archaeologists have found evidence that way back in 1470 BC — in other words, much before today’s parents were yesterday’s teenagers — Egyptians would take part in great festivals the point of which would be to partake in sex, drugs and rock’n’roll, or at least, sex, alcoholic concoctions and pyramidal rock formations. Any doubts about the ancient youngsters not making a Woodstock out of their lives have been dispelled by evidence of a drinking ritual and naughty graffiti."
