Looks like we’ll soon be seeing ads on the History channel for genuine salvaged Ming porcelain.

And how much do you want to bet they’ll end up selling three times as many priceless original pieces than they hauled up? I heard it is impossible to date porcelain.

I think the Ming Dynasty porcelains made now are much nicer than the original Ming Dynasty porcelains.

nyuh nyuh nyuh.

In a belated story, there are those persons with the will, and means to find truly hisoric and valuable wrecks, some have gold, silver, and even lead, [lead can be valuable].

Hey China, have fun with your pottery scraps. I’m not saying that yer nation will not benifit, I’m just saying that shards of a lost kingdom are pretty cool, but that the attitude of a socialist government such as yours would relegate me to the “I’m just an observer” bin.

Open up a museum in China, I’d like to go, but I don’t think you’d want me there.
And, You idiots in control of a great peoples, best do what is right.
