Hello,

This is not exactly on the topic at hand, but has been a bee in my
bonnet for the last few months.  In a June 6, 2003 article in the Globe
and Mail (Toronto) it was reported that 280 boxes of artifacts were
accidentally taken from the University of Toronto and dumped in Michigan
(Toronto sends a significant amount of trash to be dumped in Michigan
landfills - another issue).  Most of the artifacts are reported to have
come from "native and colonial sites" dating as far back at the 15th
century.  I do not know if anyone else has run across this story.  I
have attached a link below.
