Hypocrisy!

Again, pure hypocrisy. I have no personal agenda here for I don´t have diving equipment (except for paddles). But again the cultural bias is visible: it seems to be perfectly OK to enter Egyptian tombs, to put these items in museums and for museums to profit from them. Yet, if the same is done on a Western ship, some people start squealing.

Let´s put it this way: I am a Finn. If someone explored sunken Finnish ships like Ilmarinen, I´d say go for it. The dead are dead, they don´t care. As for the rest, any outcry is hypocrisy. Earth to earth, dust to dust. And dust doesn´t not care.
