Precious objects

Recommended Posts

So on my desk, under a glass dome, I have a small chunk of Trinitite, the green glassy fused sand created from the Alamogordo desert floor in the 'Trinity' test firing of the plutonium bomb. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinitite

Behind it is a photo of the aircraft Enola Gay, autographed by pilot Paul Tibbets, navigator 'Dutch' van Kirk, and bombardier Thomas Ferebee. (Not especially valuable -- they signed many of them.)

Who else likes this kind of memorabilia, and collects it?
