How is the bid a donation and to who? Is he going to "donate" anything to the museum? I think NOT! And as has been stated, why is there a REPRO on the original Engine? If it is original, I would like to know how he got it. I guess then that its ok to auction off a piece of the titanic? Perhaps I am missing something in his description. IMHO I am never amazed at what people will do for a buck! Why dont we all donate ten bucks and then give it back to the museum? How about it Chris Z?,John
