caused millions of dollars worth of damage to a fossilised whale

Is there really that much of a market for fossilized whale?

What bizarre appraisal techniques are used to come up with a $10MM figure for some old bones?

Europeans, we are told, are less provincial and more civilized than Americans.

Somehow, this must be George Bush's fault.

May I ask why these fossils are still in the ground, not being studied, if they are so important?

World Heritage Site again? BARF. I didn’t know they extended their 1-world nonsense to pre-history (i.e., non-humans).
