Something excavated in the '90s in the Mediterranean probably officially belongs to the country it was found in, as such it was probably smuggled. If the museum were to say how they got it and where it was found, the rightful owners might claim it…

Turns out pocketknives are the most lost thing in the world. Almost everybody loses them almost instantly. The kind with a lanyard last better - if you remember religiously to reattach them after using them.

But their handy, pocket-sized dense nature makes them ideal for slipping out of hand or pocket, or being left on a tree stump or post, or plunk! gone in any body of water.

I say leave it in your car or your bag.

The first rule of owning a pocket knife: You can't use it if you don't carry it.

In all seriousness, I've battled with this for quite a while and any scheme that involves not carrying your pocket knife on your person, leads to you not having it when you need it most.

Turns out you're making that up without any statistical proof what so ever, and if you're attaching a knife to a lanyard it is you yourself who becomes the tool

I read it as hyperbole, not a serious factual statement.

Cute. No statistics at all? I didn't know the Amazing Kreskin posted on HN! I yield to superior argument.

Well you kind of pulled that stat straight out of your back pocket

Again with the mentalist act. Clearly others know more about me than I do. Again, I submit to a superior intellect.
