Garret,

What ever happened to finders keepers or salvage laws.  The majority of
these wrecks dissapear with time.  Either through corrosion, sea life or
sand build up.  Mother Nature is a bitch and wrecks don't last all that
long by themselves relatively speaking.  
What is wrong with me putting a few pieces of brass or bronze in my
house to display to my friends.  Would you rather these pieces of
history dissappear forever.  You might suggest that I give them to a
museum.  Kiss my ass, I found them they are mine.  As far as the gov't
salvaging these historic monuments for museums, that is ridiculous.  I
have yet to see a gov't project that could and would do a decent job of
bringing up all the artifacts.  

Calling divers who salvage and preserve screws, portholes, props and
other misc. items "wreck rapists" is sure to make you a popular man.   

Later,
Greg "The prop. stealing diver" Kuiper
