Greetings:

Look at the US government liquidation site (commercial venture with DRMO)
www.drms.dla.mil . Up for auction is one single lot of several million
pounds of mixed metal. Looks like the entire inventory of Davis-Monthan
AFB, the boneyard for old military aircraft. Sadly, one of the conditions
is a demil process that apparently consists of shredding the entire
aircraft. Too bad, there is so much history, and potential there. It will
be interesting to see what it goes for.

Yeah,

And how long a turn around time before the Chinese are selling it all
back to us in Wal Mart?

I can't really see the metal going anywhere else, sadly.

There is something to be said for government by a great aristocracy
which has furnished leaders to the nation in peace and war for generations;
even a democrat like myself must admit this.

But there is absolutely nothing to be said for government by a plutocracy,
for government by men very powerful in certain lines and gifted with the "money touch,"
but with ideals which in their essence are merely those of so many glorified pawnbrokers.

Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919), U.S. Republican (later Progressive) politician, president. Letter, 15 Nov. 1913.

Wow, the very first picture is of a P-82 Twin Mustang. There can't be many
of those left around. What a collection.
