She said all the stuff is in storage and no one can have access to it... This really puzzeld me then she went on to tell me that they threw out over 500,000 artifacts because they didn't have the space to keep them. So then I asked why didn't they donate the artifacts to another museum or educational institution or auction them off to fund more archaeology.... Her answer was that the way the laws work the artifacts are public property and belong to no one and that no one can own them so redundant artifacts have to be destroyed....
Hey Chris,
This She Said, She Said Tale ending is really distressing. I was sadly aware of the millions of artifacts in storage across the fruited plain that will never again see the light of day. This destruction of redundancies is an alarming, I trust new development. I wonder if they recycled...[8D]
I've heard that some long term storage facilities were full. What job description would a Federal redundancy eliminator have? I think I would really like to learn more about such a job.
