1 A few of the most recent examples, other than those cited elsewhere in this paper, would include Castaneda and Matthews (2008), Colwell-Chanthaphonh and Ferguson (2007), Derry and Malloy (2003), Little and Shackel (2007), Marshall (2002a), Merriman (2004a), Mortensen and Hollowell (2009), Shackel and Chambers (2004) and Smith and Waterton (2009).

2 Institutional Review Board procedures were created for science research in response to US federal regulations; see Title 45, US Code of Federal Regulations, Part 46. Consider that in 2003 the Office for Human Research Protections/Health and Human Sciences (the federal agency enforcing the regulation), in conjunction with the Oral History Association and the American Historical Association, issued a formal statement that taking oral histories, unstructured interviews (as if for a piece of journalism), collecting anecdotes and similar free-speech activities do not constitute IRB-qualified research, and were never intended to be covered by clinical research rules. See Shopes and Ritchie (2003).
