An interesting and rather surprising conclusion.

Were I the discoverer, I think I would want to take a middle road. I definitely would want to avoid publicity, but I couldn't leave a technological marvel like that alone. I would want to get it operating and go for a ride!

At the very least, I would come back again and again to study the mechanism and contents and materials... Curiosity!

When I was a boy, I tremendously enjoyed the stories brought to me by Boys Life magazine. One of my very favorite series about a discovery was written by **Donald Keith.

The series began with a couple of boy scouts riding bicycles through a canyon. There, they discovered a cigar-shaped craft buried in a rockslide. Turned out to be a time machine... :D

Stories like this became part of the fabric of my being... :) Thanks for another good one! <3
