Caves, A Fragile Wilderness

Hi everybody.
Couple months ago I was at Norfolk, VA airport. This is what I found there, an exhibit box about caves:

Ironic, isn't it?

Yep a bit,... :doh:

But I guess it's a case of "you can't make an omelette without breaking eggs", at least they are trying to educate the public and I doubt a sign saying all the things you can't do would get much attension. If these were confiscated or previously collected speleothems then at least they are being put to good use.
