Get it bomb-proofed QUICK.
The rad-Muzzies are liable to blow it sky high to kingdom come if they find out where it is.

Inscription on the Bhudda plaque:
“with thanks from the Guarjarat Kiwanis for his outstanding leadership as Head Lama during the year of the monkey in the 1500 years of Bhudda’s Birth,...’
I got a bunch of these somewhere that will probably go into a landfill when I die and be resurrected after several millenia.

I wonder how Gujarat feels about people poking around in his Vadnagar.
I know I'd be pretty pissed if someone didn't ask really politely first.
