re: #501 Walter L. Newton

You presume a lot.
I’ve been two feet away from artworks that are worth millions and millions of dollars. I’ve stood places that could never, ever be replicated if I damaged them. A sheet of plexiglas would be sufficient to preserve a smoke-stained fireplace from some errant cleaning zealot.
It’s bureacracy and power-hunger that prevented me from seeing where these Native Americans lived, nothing more. The place was a freakin’ wild tourist campground until the 1950’s. My footprints would not have constituted theft or damage.
