This man is a surviving member of the original MANHATTAN PROJECT team!

This whole thing is crap.

I do agree with the allusions to the coin collection, and the compound fire at Waco that killed a bunch of kids (another well liked Democrat was on top of that, too)

[centurion316]

Unlikely. Fermi was born in 1901 in Rome, which would have made him about 21 years older than the man with the collection.

I believe what is meant is that he graded papers FOR Fermi, Fermi being the Professor. That's what graduate students do for their professors.

[Cyber Liberty]

Oh. Boy, did I blow that! You are correct.

[PIF]

Even so, he did. I don't remember, it was a long time ago, but I think Fermi was at the Institute for Advanced Study with Einstein and Oppenheimer. They hold to have study groups and papers were graded.

I have seen this movie!

The Indiana Jones first one.

Nazi’s stealing artifacts.

All is lost.

No wonder they are buying all the ammo.

Video here.
Our government is run by a bunch of damn thieves. He won’t see any of his collections again.

You can bet there will be a big fine to pay for anything they want to declare illegal so he will no doubt lose his property too.

[Cyber Liberty]

I had it bass-ackwards...

[PIF]

Well, at least it was a bass, not a carp :)

[FBD]

Do you think there’s something else going on here ?
This operation just seems far too elaborate for an artifacts investigation.

[FBD]

100 FBI goons documenting Miller's arrowheads and pre-Columbian pottery collection.
Yup, this guy's a real criminal. Meanwhile, not one Wall Street investment banker has been prosecuted since 2008.

“OK, a little further research suggests that the 91-year-old “perp” may be harboring some Indian artifacts/bones. They are pretty much on the warpath about getting their ancestors’ stuff back from collectors and even museums. Even if the items were purchased legally, the Indians believe they still belong to them. The FBI “Art Crimes Unit” is examining everything”

BINGO
We've found the instigators of this travesty:

Native American group believes remains among Rush Co. artifacts

[Cowgirl]

I figure it’s just about money.

[FBD]

We’ve found who instigated this.
The “American Indian Movement”
