That makes pehrfaked sence. It is far better to have an art
thief and document forger around when an artefact is
discovered. Also it is much much better to have the document
sheltered from scientific inspection, and much much better to
buy stolen artefacts on the black market, work in secret
authenticating them and then surprise the public with your
conclusions, while passing misinformation about how much you
paid, and the history of the document.

Didn't they teach you anything in your University. If you had
half the sense of my poor senile grandmother who knew much
much more than any american scientist about anything, you
certainly would have gone to superior scandinavian university,
might I recommend a remedial course at Linchpin University, we
can get you into a course taught by distinquished ex-Alumni of
well-known Scholarly Scholar Defeacamentation.
