ok i'll try to keep this short lol.

i have always thought of it this way.
think of being at dinner or something with your family and all of a sudden the door flies open and here are these people helping themselves to whatever they wanted while you and your family sat there and couldnt do anything about it. how would that make you feel.
it would suck. just because it is there doesnt mean that it is for the taking. yes the wreck should be preserved but in the end it is like any other wreck. it will all eventually be gone. what if your child had a favorite teddy bear and they took it. you never heard where they were taking it and you never see it again. but once for these people wasnt enough they had to come back 5 or 6 times . just rummaging through your things. taking whatever they wanted. then as far as the debri feild ... hey let's checkout your shed in the backyard. see how much lawn equipment they have that we can take. they can prserve titanic by photos . if those people are 'down' on titanic then maybe those things are all they have of their families and so on. i think and always will think it is wrong to take from them.
no matter what.

hi tammy,
thank you. your are right it would pi$$$$$ you of if someone did that. unfortunately most people don't look at it like that. if they did they would have done like dr.ballard did. pictures only. it is nice to see artifacts however couldn't they use the pictures to do reproductions of them instead of disturbing their rest on the bottom with their rightufll owners.
as far as what would i like them to do with it ? well whats done is done so donate it to the national geographic or smithasoneon. even if it is a tax rideoff. they should not have messed with it in the first place.
