Magna Carta
by lucky u on Dec 19, 2007 12:39 PM

I think it crass commercialism to auction historic documents such as Magna Carta and hand it over to private individuals. The rightful place for such documents should be museums where the general public can see and read them. Imagine a historic monument like Taj Mahal being auctioned by the Govt.of India! It's like selling off history for money. I strongly deplore this practice.
