Can't read the Linear B scrolls?  OK, toss 'em.

The fact that an artifact can't be read today doesn't mean that it won't be 
able to be read, understood, and be of historic value tomorrow.

It seems to me that an inability to decipher an artifact is not a sound 
foundation for destroying it.

IMHO, as always.

Cheers, Scott
