Nonsense

The fuss over the Lewis chessmen has me starting to think Scotland's turned into a banana republic. Edinburgh, perhaps, but I can't imagine competent security measures in any museum Lewis has to offer. They'd be stolen within a week.
Maybe I should start a campaign to reclaim property my ancestors owned in Scotland a few centuries ago? See how they like that.
