      No. What makes you so sure you can handle it better than me? There is a saying that may be appropriate for you: "The chickens do not know where the eagle is flying". It could be that your arrogance and pride is speaking, and you don't know the big plan I've had in my mind that I'm hatching slowly but sure.

      I was watching discouvery today talking about this, and one of the lady from the British Museum said because they think they can better handle and protect the treasures than those countries where the treasures were robbed. When you visit museums where they shows items from foreign countries, I hope you can think about how it gets there before getting a close look at them.

            I have a Sai and an Escrima, two Tonfas, and a Bo. But I don't have a katana because I've got two little brothers (5 and 7) who like to play with sharp objects. ;P

              Well, when you're talking about museum arts it is true that in some countries they will be better protected, i.e. the British Museum would have more appreciation and funds to protect these arts than a museum in Egypt (heh, even the British Museum is not invulnerable to robbery, perhaps the thieves think they can handle the treasures better ;P). I did read somewhere about thievery of antique items in Egypt where they melt these centuries old jewelery into gold bars to sell. I can't even begin to imagine the loss of historical value. Besides, hasn't the British Museum returned some of the art items they have to the proper owner countries?

                          Mine is a sword blank really... unsharpened, though if I struck someone with it it would probably break bones, it is steel. I forgot about the Bo, I don't have any Tonfas, I used to, I need to get more, build my weapons collection again. :) maybe feb taxes. ;)

                                  All roads? All? And who collects the toll money? And what about public transporation? Would the bus driver have to keep track of all the roads on your route to charge you accordingly?

                                          I think that could be figured out in advance and the fares set appropriately.
