Managing all our resources

Hooray for Gary Murrin. If the provincial archives, the people who are charged with preserving historic documents, are willing to dispose of them, at very least sell them off. Auction off the museum contents while you're at it. Hold a giant garage sale up at Fort Townsend. Get an eBay account and go nuts.

But don't shred the stuff.

And consider this posting a standing offer to buy any Labrador materials.

For anyone else concerned about PANL's over-eagerness to run historic resources through the shredder, the responsible minister is Clyde Jackman: clydejackman@gov.nl.ca, phone 729-0657, fax 729-0662.

The provincial archivist is Greg Walsh: gwalsh@gov.nl.ca, phone 757-8032, fax 757-8031.
