1. Not even counting tourists, Egypt is especially proud of their ancient history. The new national museum, nicknamed GEM, Grand Egyptian Museum, may finally open this year.

2. In my opinion, some items, especially Rosetta Stone, to Egypt would be the right thing (and make headlines throughout the world). On the other hand, I reject returning Chinese artifacts from Taiwan to mainland China.

3. Frankly, there are better questions. I challenge the class to invent better and better questions. If one opens the area outward 500 miles in any direction from the Pyramids, then things get serious.

If there are serious questions on Egypt, modern or ancient, I'm sure I have my friends will have interesting answers. Once in a while, I am able to answer.
