I am pleased that Yale is finally giving back the goods it stole.

I just wish there was actually a punishment involved to cut the striped-panted elite down a notch of two (though the fact that they trained the current president should serve to remind the country of the nature of the institution)

I've been following this story since last fall, when I read Christopher Heaney's great New Republic article about Bingham last fall.

Now the rats go to rest and Peru gets back title to its treasures.
