The Swiss are not the only ones fuming about this issue.

New Zealand is planning to hold a fund-raising auction that
would sell silver remnants of the original trophy, first presented
in 1851 and symbolizing supremacy in international yacht racing.

They allowed a kook to smash the Cup and should have rebuilt
the cup with the original material instead of keeping it and using
it for their own profit.

If New Zealand does this, we should boycott the country and it's
products.

Refuse to wear wool and stop eating lamb.... that'll teach'em!

Then again... by the time the USA ever wins that Cup back.... it'll be made
of titanium. :-)

Typical Snobbish Commonwealth behavior. The Commonwealth and Empire has been
looting the world for centuries. They never return anything and never pay
for anything they break. Why expect anything different from them now? It's
that sense of entitlement.
