It is a good thing that Zahi Hawass was unsuccessful in getting Germany to return the bust of Nefertiti. Losing that to a mob or looters would be kinda like losing the Mona Lisa.

We were to leave on a tour of Egypt yesterday. I had bought
a Dr.Hawass hat at the King Tut exhibit in NYC to wear.

First thing I thought of too. It's not a bad idea to have things spread around a bit.
