Solar Lamp the Environmentally and Politically Correct Choice of Neil McGregor




http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/ahistoryoftheworld/2010/10/100th-object-reveal.shtml

Why can't we have that beautifully-wrapped mummy with the individually-wrapped fingers that is my fave BM exhibit?

It could be a metaphor for historical preservation, serendipity and human ingenuity and of course the human form. 

Instead, Ian McGregor chose the solar lamp because the PC theme of environmental sustainability is flavour of the decade.  Ho hum.
