Government innefficiency

This is just sad.

Reagan library can't fully account for 80,000 artifacts

...a "near universal" security breakdown left the artifacts vulnerable to pilfering by insiders, an audit by the National Archives inspector general has concluded.

The IG said his office was investigating allegations that a former employee stole Reagan memorabilia but that the probe had been hampered by the facility's sloppy record-keeping.

"We have been told by sources that a person who had access capability removed holdings. But we can't lock in as to what those may be."

Lock in?

There's a poor choice of words and the scientific community is united in that fact.

The hilltop complex near Simi Valley that houses Reagan's papers -- as well as the Air Force One that served as the "Flying White House" for seven presidents -- is the most visited of the nation's 12 presidential libraries.

Are they sure Air Force One is still there?

Is that picture coming or going?

After all a huge excavator was stolen in Des Moines and found in Oskaloosa, about 60 miles away, over a month later.
