I have been worried about destruction of antiquities in all of this. How sad.

I’m hoping that the workers at the Cairo Museum are busily hiding the most important antiquities. I think that is where the mask of King Tut resides (of course, it may be touring). This morning the pyramids were blocked to tourists, closed down and protected.

Sadly, I think I will never see these wonders of the world in my lifetime. Should have gone in the 70s when I had the chance.

That stuff is isn't really that old and is over rated...If ya want see some *real* old stuff, look at rocks, or for that matter the sun, but use proper filtering.
