9. Well, I was responding to the "clever" part of your post. I must admit I am big time mad at Yale |

over the Macchu Picchu issue. It was plunder, pure and simple.
Perhaps you can appreciate that living here in New Haven we see Yale as "Bigfoot" in many instances that I won't bore you with, but that affect people's lives, people who are vulnerable when trying to go against such a powerful institution. Yale does some good things and I have had some terrific colleagues and acquaintances at Yale. But living here I have seen what enormous power does, just by being so enormous.
Oh, and yes, I think the UK should give the Elgin marbles back to Greece. I'm sure the Greek government would be happy to have people see them there. Perhaps you believe that "might makes right"?
